Pros (+) Pool was inclose
Cons (-) Close to fishingmen wharf
Pros (+) Location
Cons (-) Multi use soap pumps....ewww glad I travel with my own soaps Dirty floor and bath Lazy staff, waited 5 min for them to acknowledge I was there to check in only to be told please wait. Won't be a second visit.
Pros (+) Room was spacious. It's next to the beach. Breakfast was average
Cons (-) Checking in the gentleman at the counter was very rude. Had his head phones in and basically just asked for name and gave us our key. Didn't give us any information. The room also smelled like animals had been in there.
Cons (-) Worst place to stay! Very unsafe, and the people working there would not answer the phone.
Cons (-) People next to us partied all night with loud music and dozens of people in their room. We complained and nothing happened . Was not worth the money we did not sleep at all and the tv was broken.
Pros (+) This hotel has everything coffee pot, microwave, fridge, blow dryer, shampoo and conditioner, body wash, hand soap, lotion, Wi-Fi, cable ac/haeater, indoor pool, ice machine, and free breakfast.
Cons (-) The parking lot got full quick. No parking in front of our room.
Pros (+) Very clean and safe was in splendid location and was very sffordable
Pros (+) Clean, comfortable, affordable
Cons (-) Noisy, location
Pros (+) Very nice motel.
Cons (-) Not enough breakfast food to go around. No DVD there. That alone will keep us from coming here again.
