Carly, Mar 2026
The location was fine for our needs for the weekend and the staff was limited but nice. Those are the only positives from our stay. The lobby level was very cold and the music was so loud you couldn’t even talk to anyone without leaning in and yelling. The elevator had no security measures as the signage indicated. Most of the elevators were not working. This was a big problem Saturday night after...

Sara, Sept 2019
Cons (-) The hotel is run down. There is $15 resort fee for the amenities...but I still don’t get what the fee was for. The pool was closed “for the season”, no one told us about the WiFi password until we had to call down. There was no information in the room. Each bed had only two pillows and had to ask front desk for more. Staff seem to all have attitudes and very unprofessional. We booked two rooms so ...

Pros (+) Friendly staff. Older but beautiful hotel. A little spooky seeing grand spaces without the people and slot machines.
Cons (-) We thought the casino was there but it was not. Parking should be free for guests. The beach was not open we had to go to the next hotel's section of the beach, not a big deal though.

Pros (+) Location and staff
Cons (-) They were overbooked so for our 12 year anniversary we were moved to a room with 2 queens as the one we booked days prior 1 king was not available. Their excuse was that they work on a first come first serve basis thus reserving is a waste of time.

Pros (+) Location.
Cons (-) When arriving at the front desk I was not greeted and the only one in line for about 10 minutes. I was charged $50 early check in for being there an hour early and had to get to the golf course. When checking out it was the same thing. No one had a smile and I felt that paying over $200 for a room I would have been treated better. Especially since there is not even a casino. Would not recommend to...
