The only real negative I would leave is the hot breakfast was not very good. Otherwise, great room for a layover on the way to the beach

The sink supply lines were leaking in the little bar sink. Floor was soaking wet. That dripping kept me up half the night. Good thing my husband didn’t have his hearing aides in. Management said they were sorry. I almost fell from walking across the wet floor and then to the tile bathroom floor. Never again. When I asked for a partial repayment the front desk person just said she was sorry. If I fell from that or got sick because of the mold I’m sure was growing there I would’ve had the board of health close that place down. Just don’t make the same mistake I did. Stay away from this hotel!!! I’d of been better off sleeping in my car!!

The property is under construction so we had some issues related to that. The breakfast was quite good. I'm guessing once they are done the place will be a better place to stay.
