Not the best
Pros:

The location.

Cons:

The cleanliness of our room. Honestly, dirty. We saw TWO roaches inside of our room. The room did not smell "fresh". "New towels had hair from either housekeeping or previous visitors. Our room phone did not work, so we were u able to talk contact the front desk nor housekeeping. Because of this, I went to the front desk to ask for towels and either the front desk didn't communicate or the housekeeping department did not follow through because we never received the towels.

This hotel was not as I had hoped.
Pros:

The overall location was good. The lobby area was appealing.

Cons:

The elevators were both small and slow. The distance to the beach was disappointing. My rental for a balcony was disappointing as it only had one chair and a tiny table. The space was toooo small to sit. The image on the web site is inadequate.

The stay was great but we were disappointed in lack of breakfast.
Pros:

The coffee shop was nice.

Cons:

We could have had more towels.
We also did not have complimentary breakfast as stated at booking. We were promised breakfast in bold red letters by booking.com but did not get it.

My room smelled like marijuana.
Pros:

It smelled like marijuana. I called the front desk to report it and the man told me” all rooms are smoke free.” Horrible customer service.

Cons:

The room smelled like marijuana. I was denied a new room assignment. I was told “ all rooms are smoke free.” Disrespectful, unprofessional front desk staff (man).

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

When I checked in, the room I had booked through Booking.com was u
navailable—in fact, there was no record of the reservation at all. It took the hotel staff 40 minutes to resolve the issue, and instead of the room with two beds I had originally booked, they gave me a room with just one bed and a couch. They even demanded a $40 deposit. It was a truly unpleasant experience, and I want to hold both Booking.com and the Courtyard Hotel accountable.

Issues the whole visit with system and then being doubled charged later
Cons:

They changed my room 3 times due to issues with their door and key card. The lack of properly correcting the issue so we were not back and forth coming to the front desk. Definitely helped our decision to never return to that hotel ever again. It was too expensive and we traveled from out of state to have so many problems with rooms dirty and the other was already occupied.
