The breakfast is a joke. Frozen eggos and cereal ( im not even being dramatic) the room was clean and view was great but elevator and hallways were dark dirty and completely falling apart. Walls are extremely thin. You could hear everything! The parking garage was terrible. We couldnt park beyong level 1 due to the rental car (elantra) scaping due to unevel pavement. When addressing this with the hotel we were told we would have to pay $40 nightly to use public parking.

Thump
Our stay was good, the only thing is that the we didn't stay up late and the music was so loud that it was disturbing even on the fourth floor. Other than that it was a good experience.

The location of this property is great. Close to the fishing pier, short distance from neptune's and staring at beach. As with any property you have good and bad. Great- View Good- location, ease of beach access, convenient to restaurants and shops. okay- as with any beachfront resort your always battling the sand. Staff was always sweeping and maintaining. Patrons were rolling sand covered coolers and dragging beach chairs through lobby (no consideration/respect) Bad- the breakfast. Don't' advertise breakfast when its microwavable eggs or a toaster with bagels. Beds are hard (metal frame/mattress). We went with another family and we paid extra for oceanfront, while they had partial view (room sizes were very different) partial was a good 4/5 feet smaller and cramped. All in all i'd stay there again.

Decent for price but needs an update
Overall, the hotel was decent enough for the price we paid. We stayed for 4 nights and despite asking for housekeeping to come in and tidy and making sure the sign on our door was correct, no one ever came in to clean; unfortunately when asking a housekeeper directly, she did not speak English to confirm that our room would be taken care of. We called the front desk every day for towels and trashbags. The room itself was comfortable and it had extra plastic chairs to sit out on the balcony and enjoy the view that we paid for. The space was cramped when trying to maneuver around because of how the furniture is set up with a wardrobe and end table that had the coffee machine. Overall the room and hotel, not counting the front lobby, needs a renovation to bring it into modern times.

When we arrived, yes, it was really late, however, I had booked the room with 3 kids. I asked for a cot and they said that that particular service was over, but she would ask the security guard. We never got a cot.

The only issue I had was the elevators were very slow. The fire alarm went off on our last morning there (8/12/24) Fortunately we did not have to evacuate. I feel they handled that situation very well.

Floor not swept when we first walked in. Breakfast is included but not very good, lots of rules and not many options. Only recommend if on a budget.
