Anonymous, Jul 2019
Pros (+) It was close to the water and the pool was okay.
Cons (-) The rooms were not great. A few ceiling tiles were on the brink of collapse, the wall unit air conditioner looked like a lint trap from a dryer, and the comforter had stains. There was also no HBO as advertised and only dry muffins for breakfast.

Pros (+) The view of water beautiful.
Cons (-) The sand beach area was very dirty. Rooms dirty. Some type of gnatty bugs all over. Rooms smelled. Carpet dirty, bathroom floors dirty. Shower stalls had duct tape on them with wall paper coming down in sheets.

Cons (-) The whole facility needs updating, but it was a great for the price.

The conditions of the general infrastructure was poor. All buildings had signs of roof damage parking lo...

Pros (+) Nothing
Cons (-) Our door didn't always lock. If you pushed on the door hard enough it popped open, but the front desk people said it was fine and not broken. Carpet was so filthy that your feet were black after walking across it even after your shower. Tons of mold and mildew on shower tiles. Very outdated. Probably hasn't been remodeled since the seventies. And our room wasn't serviced each day. Had to go and ge...
