Probably poorly maintained and very tattered and torn down. Smelled, floors extremely dirty, beds not nice! Couch was the worst! Did not see any bed bugs as others have, but don’t believe web. Details. Very small 32 inch tv’s almost no channels to watch, A/C definitely not great. Outside area has homeless sleeping in alley in back. No lobby to speak of and no breakfast of any kind, for 130 a nigh you could at least get a banana or orange, and hot coffee! Nope! Fridge was good! And pool was maintained and good! Cheap accommodation near the sea wall! They know it and exploit it and charge way too much for what you get! I’d stay away!

There was blood spots on the bed sheets. And bed bugs. Horrible staff. They didn’t want change the sheets unless I brought it to them. Or switch my room to a different one. They said they were booked. But there was only a few cars there the whole weekend.

I’m pretty sure one of the two rooms that I stayed in had bedbugs. Probably number 206, but it could’ve been number 101. In addition to the fact that I had no television and no Wi-Fi for the first day of my stay. I reported it at 6 PM and was not moved to a room with a working tv until 4 PM the next day.

Walked in to a fly infestation, broken cabinets, lights, and door handle. Told the front desk and they said they would give me the security deposit back but wouldn’t help with anything else. Towels were dirty and the whole hotel smelled like marijuana. There was hair in the shower and the entire room was overall nasty. You get what you pay for but this hotel should be paying you to stay there.

It was disgusting in every way. A girl was pushing a shopping cart full of "stuff" around on the 2nd floor near our room, and offered my male friend a certain something and gave him her room number. Furniture was all along the walkway. I could go on. It was actually scary.

There was a quaint little grave yard in the back of the property that is not marked and half flooded. The stove looked like it came out of a meth lab, there was a roach on the sink in the morning to greet me, the bath room didnt have a latch and everything was filthy.

I honestly can't believe this atrocity is still listed on Expedia! This "hotel " is a disgrace. It's filthy, the floor is falling apart. The door looks like it could be broken in by a child. We didn't even stay, we were not eligible to get our money back but where willing to forfeit it and find a decent place to stay. The people in front of us turned in their key and left because there were bed bugs in their room. Overall there should be a place for negative star ratings in Expedia.

Bed Bugs
They have BED BUGS. They werent shocked at all when i showed them the pictures either. I was told they probably appeared because they sprayed for termites. The sheets were dirty and had blood stains too. The hotel gave me my refund after Hotels.com contacted them. We were able to book a new place and wash all clothes.
