Did not get the room I requested. Down-graded to a small room overlooking the parking lot and loud street. Water damage from the floor above appeared that the ceiling might fall in! Room was dirty. Staff were unprofessional. many additional hidden charges. Overall a great dissapointment.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The hotel is in a great coastal setting but is in need of updates for the rooms and common areas - there did seem to be construction going on, but our room's bathroom is poorly functioning, carpets are dated, walls and stairwells are dirty looking and worn out. Service at the restaurant was really lacking - we were not offered seating at the bar while we waited for a table and even when we checked out the bar there was no one working there.

Loved this property, friendly staff, clean room, close to town. Nice to have a nice outdoor bar on the ocean. The pool and lagoon were great and not overcrowded in the morning. The only downside was the $100 per night deposit that I was not aware of. If would have been nice to know to plan accordingly.
