elevator went out of service, requested handicap accessible room because of foot fracture, put on third floor. Requested assistance after elevator out but none given. Had to get belongings down 3 flights of stairs with cane and foot in boot. Thankful for other quests who helped me. Will not go back there again.

Location excellent. The condition of the facilities? Meh. Everything worked in the unit. But the light that illuminates the front sign didn’t work making the hotel hard to find at night. Gate to the outdoor pool was in bad shape. The breakfast was mediocre. The TV was slow on Illuminating channels. Mentioned this to management at checkout. They said much will be fixed in the slow season as budget allows

Having a reservation made and going back a couple days later in adding a day that had to be made to a separate room could not have been combined as we could not check in till after 3:00 the first day and was told we had to check out at 11. :00 the following day and wait till after 3:00 to be rechecked in. Basically gave us 2 days out of being at the beach so a 4-day trip turned into really a 2-day trip. As I had called prior to making the add-on reservation was told they had no more rooms. So I went to hotels.com and rebooked an additional day. Called back to the hotel and asked them if they could combine. Said they would try. Upon arrival did not happen so therefore lost precious time on vacation with our 3-year-old grandson. I do not feel that the greatest effort was made to get us in a room the second day as soon as possible. But as far as the trip the location was great. Pool s were clean. Areas were clean. Staff was very friendly and probably will be back.

We had a great stay. Rooms were clean and staff was friendly. The only downside is the hotel only has one elevator and you have to go through two doors for each breezeway and it’s not the easiest thing to do in a scooter.

We had an ocean view and it was amazing. Short walk to the beach and shops. Only complaint is the towels. Probably the thinnest towels I’ve ever had at a hotel.
