Room was seemed very clean and bathroom too. Woke up the next morning and there was a mouse poo on the sink. There seems to be a hole beside the pipe that comes out of the side wall where pipe comes out. Needs to be filled. Bed was very comfortable and air-conditioning was nice and very cold. Has a fridge and microwave. No coffee machine. Had to go to front desk area to get coffee. I know the hotel is very close to the beach, so sand can be an issue in halls. However, someone smaked their shoes on the wall next to the elevator and left sandy footprints on the metal wall. It was still there the next day at 9 am. Makes you wonder of cleaning of rooms. Back elevator was out of order. Had a lovely balcony, but had nice view of hotel with balconies next door. No view of ocean as picture shows. Wrong side I assume. Remote to TV was acting wacko, so I had to walk to from desk for help, since room phone was not working at all. She said, No one was able to help for 3 hrs. Said the remote was for that TV only. Asked for new batteries, told her that batteries going bad may cause craziness. It worked.

Cons: The location was not what we expected. The bathroom was dirty. Right outside the room the view from the balcony was where looked like homeless people gathered with all the belongings and shopping carts. The pool/ hot tub area was overwhelming with the smell of chlorine.
The bathroom room had a hunk of door missing.
Pros: For the price the location was close to the port we left from.

The hotel was fine as a place to sleep when I wasn’t on the beach. But one of the two elevators didn’t work and only one ice machine worked. I stayed 4 nights and no one ever cleaned my room despite the fact the sign in the bathroom said the room would be cleaned every other day. The free breakfast was pretty sparse. I expected better from a Hilton.

Our shower didnt drain the whole time and backed up nasty sandy water everything we showered that would get up over our feet. Super gross! Also, very stingy with towels. We spent 4 nights and they didnt really want to give us fresh towels. Never once cleaned the room or took trash. We had SO MUCH TRASH. And.... since this is a hotel at the beach, sand gets tracked in.... maybe clean the rooms every other day so people are stuck in filth!

Pros - Right on the Seawall beaches. Bed very comfortable. Soaps provided were nice. Breakfast was outstanding. Indoor pool is nice.

Cons - Bed was not made and no housekeeping came by. Asked if we could have housekeeping and just received an I don’t know response. One elevator didn’t work. At that property you really do need one to go down to the parking garage. So the elevator was very crowded and long wait times.

The property pictures show ocean views yet I was told that the King rooms do not have ocean views after I booked 3 nights with a balcony. Jen I walked into a room that looked like someone was still in it. The bed was not made, trash and towels dirty on the floor. I was then placed in an ADA room with a view of the condos next door and street light that shined directly into my room. There was no hot water, I took lukewarm showers. The room floor felt dirty and I found trash from the last occupant behind the trash can. The halls smelled of mold and there was what looked like mold on the bathroom ceiling. The ac leaked in the bathroom right where the toilet sat. The bed, however, was clean and comfortable.

It worked as a place to stay. Staff was friendly, but the place is old and run down. One of the elevators isn't working, probably hasn't in a long time. Door to staircase was locked, which is a firecode violation. Its just an old rundown facility, but if just want somewhere to sleep, it works.

Front desk said they don’t have night house keeper so she gave me new sheets and for me to change them myself…so I pulled the sheets out and started to noticed that it wasn’t going to work because the pee smells was beyond the sheets. I went back to the front desk and told her. She texted her manager and they gave us another room

We loved that the property was right across the street from the beach so beach access was very easy. However, the breakfast was not a continental breakfast, and everything served was cold, on purpose. Cold cereal, cold yogurt, cold boiled eggs in the shell, bagels, and apples and bananas. The only thing hot was coffee. So having to eat breakfast out both days cost about $150 extra. Also, do not use their shampoo, conditioner, or shower gel because it doesn't even lather. Bring your own. Oh, and the only elevator in the building to get into the building from the parking area was very small and super slow. There is also very limited number of handicap parking spaces. We will use them again and be better prepared next trip.

He told us we had to look at what the cost for that day in time. It was the biggest rip off! I will never use this hotel. Hilton should be ashamed for doing business with these rip of owners.

Breakfast was just simple cold stuff that you heat up yourself (oatmeal or bagel), cereal, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, juice, and coffee. Not great choices if needing high protein with variety. Outside light fixture on our balcony was hanging off the wall by a single wire.
Cleanliness was okay, though the entire hotel smells a bit musty. Staff was friendly and helpful. Could see the ocean fairly well from our balcony, just have to look past the restaurant that sits next to the hotel.

There were red/possible blood stains on the bathroom floor, with the showers having multiple patch jobs and stains in them as well, th hotel itself had an overwhelming cleaner smell as you walk in, which wasn’t a big deal, but we suspected it was masking the upstairs smell in the room hallways, which smelled very heavily of a moldy mildew smell, the pool is smaller than what’s advertised, but hey it’s a beach so who honestly cares! Breakfast does not have any hot options, it’s mainly cereal and bagels, which again, is no big deal, just would have liked to have seen that in the description!
I suspect the smell in the hotel was the cause of our family getting sick if it was a mold base. They are highly allergic to mold, and we all left sick and disgusted by the condition of the hallways and the rooms. The staff was kind, but just a bit hard to talk to due to a language barrier, but otherwise, it wasn’t a horrible stay, it just wasn’t advertised properly online. Not quite worth 800 for three nights.
