Pros:

Nice enough hotel and very reasonable price. Across from beach. Had carts to help with luggage. Good breakfast selection. Liked the underground parking.

Cons:

Tv wasn't working properly and I called front desk. Waited an hour and a half at night. Was told maintenance would be right up. No one showed up. So I called back and told them forget about it it was almost 10 o'clock. Other than that things were fine.

Breakfast awesome. Service excellent. Cleaning so-so. Receptionist could smile
Pros:

Breakfast is awesome. Location the best. I like the hot tub with lights.

Cons:

Horrible situation happened with room entry cards. Every day receptionist offered other cards but we stood by the door trying to get that "Green Light". Fifty tries ! We promised to check the lock. No result. The situation with staying and running up and down is unacceptable.. But the hotel desk people obviously had fun. When their man came he easily opened the door. They have real cards that work. We changed 6 cards. I will never stop at this hotel again. No fun no calm.

Pros:

The staff at the counter were kind, informative, and helpful.

Cons:

Even with the "do not disturb" sign on the door. Every single morning we had a stranger barge into our room! The do not disturb sign exists for a reason!!! I felt as though I had absolutely no privacy. If they can't respect the "do not disturb" sign on the door and just match right in, how can I feel safe showering or sleeping or anything else for that matter???
