Pros:

The location of the hotel was good and it was clean. The bed was comfortable. The breakfast each morning was good.

Cons:

I didn't like the smell of the room when we first got there. I sprayed so lysol, and the smell was better. I didn't like that the TV didn't have the option to watch Netflix or YouTube. Also we was on the 3rd floor of hotel and the person on the 4th floor above us moved around and stomp most of the night for the three nights we were there,, so we didn't get much rest.

Amazing place overall! Spray for ants outside at pool and buy new outdoor lounge chairs!
Pros:

The property was in a convenient location only about 10 minutes from beach. Breakfast was wonderful every morning with meat, eggs, fruit and waffles. Our room was amazing with plenty of space and refrigerator also! Would highly recommend! Staff was very friendly! Thank you so much!

Cons:

There was an ant problem out back at the pool and resting places. Their lounge chairs were in bad shape with chairs ripped.

Great for a quick trip!
Pros:

Breakfast was great. Check in was easy and the front desk staff were great! Building is a little dated, but not a big deal-everything was clean and there was no mold.

Cons:

Too many spots saved for elite members

Pros:

Staff were friendly and helpful. Food wa great. We met a lot of nice people there as well. Our young granddaughter loved it as well. She had a lot of great things to say about her vacation there.

Cons:

Our granddaughter wished we let her spend more time in the pool instead of taking her out and to the beach. No, everything was great.

With the exception of being locked out of our room and missing a baseball game it was okay.
Pros:

The location was great and the rooms were good.

Cons:

We got locked out of our room and it took them over 2 hours to resolve the issue. My son missed his baseball game and they promised me 10000 reward points and as of today I have not received them.

Don't stay here!! Save your vacation.
Pros:

One employee during social hour. That is it. That is the only positive comment I have about this property.

Cons:

The front desk was not manned. We had to wait quite some time for check in. We received our room key & made it to elevator. The one elevator for the whole hotel is slow, small, hot & smells awful. We made it to our floor. The amount of food & garbage in the hallways was disgusting. There was a used plunger sitting in the hallway for the first 24 hours of our stay. Right outside our room door, there was French fries on the floor with a ton of garbage. There were dishes in the dishwasher. I did not go on vacation to do someone else's dishes. Speaking of dishes, they provided 3 plates, 2 bowls, 1 fork, 3 spoons & 17 butter knives. The king bed was not made properly. The fitted sheet was literally thrown on top of mattress. There was pubic hair & candy wrapper on the floor of the water closet. The floor by the sink & mirror was visibly filthy. I cleaned with a white rag to show front desk and it was black & covered in hair. The vents were covered in mold. It was so disgusting. When issues were brought up to staff, they were uninterested & bothered. I have pictures for proof.

Pros:

Room were nice and clean

Cons:

Breakfast was good, we liked how the rooms were clean and had a place to wash and dry cloths just the out door area by pool and barbecue pits needed a little up keep the barbecue pits were not in working conditions, no cushions on the chairs in that area and most of the loungers by pool were ripped other than that the stay was decent.
