Beach Tower beachfront hotel by the sea, is the absolute nastiest, run down piece of junk, that I have ever checked into in my life! Do you have to check in at a different hotel, and once you get to beach tower, you realize the place is practically abandoned. Nasty, got dated, and hasn't been remodeled in years and years! None of the amenities listed online were actually part of the hotel. None of the doors worked, and the pool was nasty as well. I asked for a manager and they said they didn't come in until like 10:30 a.m. the next day.. they tried to move me to another room, and it had not even been cleaned. It smells like a dog house, and was even nastier than the first room. The place is a total Nightmare!! The pictures I took of it inside and out will turn your stomach. It needs demolished, or burn to the ground!!

The layout of the rooms is efficient unique. The front door exit leads to the elevator and front entrance, while the back door leads to a private balcony with stunning views.

Uncomfortable
When we arrived there was no one at the front desk. It was freezing cold outside and the doors to the lobby were all open. After a while I found a sign that the wind blew over saying we had to walk to the hotel next door to check in. We had to walk next door in 40 degree windy weather to be able to check in. The room was clean and had a nice view, no complaints there. The mattresses were awful. You could feel the springs through the mattress making for a very uncomfortable sleepless night.
