Nightmare
Pros:

Proximity to beach

Cons:

Everything. Staff was rude, room was dirty, and parking was terrible. Bathroom had mold, sheets were stained, beds had sand and hair in them, floors made feet black, stove top only had 3 of 4 burners working, patio door couldn't get to lock. No help from staff was given. Pictures online show the rooms well kept and clean but once in the room its clear thats not the case. The paint was peeling due to painting over old peeling paint, rust, bedframes clearly too big for beds in room.

The location was great. However, the facility needs improvements.
Pros:

Loved the location. You can walk right to the beach. The view from the balcony was great. We were allowed to check in early without extra charges.

Cons:

1. The kitchen did not have good dishes to cook with; the handles to the pots and pans would get so hot that it caused the hand to burn. Had to use a small towel to handle the pots and pans.
2. There were only 3 plates, 1 cup, and 1 glass for our family of 5. The spoons and forks were bent. The coffee maker didn't work properly.
3. We went to ask for a small broom so we could sweep up the sand on the floor in our room and we were told the cleaning people would take care of it. Although it was appreciated, it was an inconvenience not to have one in the room for night hours or when the floor was not completely swept.
4. The bartender was not a friendly person.
5. They had two washers and dryers for the entire place, and one of the dryers was broken during our stay. This made trying to wash or dry clothes extremely inconvenient.
6. The hot-tube was not working.

Einfach nicht schön gewesen!!!
Pros:

Das einzige was an diesen Hotel schön war, war die Aussicht auf das Meer.

Cons:

Das Hotel ist total runter gekommen. Das Klo war verstopft, es lagen Haare von fremden Menschen auf Klo. Überall Sand an den Betten. Die Küche haben wir nicht benutzt da ecklige Spritzer dran waren. Holz schon abgefallen ist. Auf dem Balkon ist alles abgeplatzt. Das Fenster ist einfach so Dreckig das man das Meer kaum sieht. Ich könnte noch mehr ausholen aber das reicht denke ich, jeder hat auch seinen eignen Standart aber selbst der Strand hat es für mich nicht weg gemacht. 77 Doller für das Parken für 1 Nacht. Das ganze kam uns über 300 Doller und war von allen einfach das schlechteste Hotel.

This place needs to be updated and have a better cleaning crew!
Pros:

Liked the beach view and balcony and the room had a kitchen area. Fridge, stove, oven, and microwave.

Cons:

Old razors were left in the shower from previous renters. The ceiling was leaking water from the room above us. The beds were uncomfortable spring mattresses on iron frames. The sofa cushions were stained and need to be washed. There was no lock on the bathroom door. Overall not the cleanest place.
