We didn’t care for no hot water, but the beach is nice, on some evenings the public beach was rather noisy. For the most part the staff were great. Would probably stay there again.

The view of ocean was amazing. We had a water leak in ceiling,so we got drips when we went to bath, use the sink and water running down mirror all over counter. So we couldn’t use the counter. Floor was also wet. The electric outlet did not work also in bathroom. Floor was Sandy thru out. Felt the room was not cleaned and managed properly for the price we had to pay

I'm sorry to hear about your experience. We had a plumbing issue in your building and were sold out at that time. Repairs are now complete. We sincerely apologize for the leaking issue. I have shared your concerns with our housekeeping team. All rooms are swept and mopped between guests. Although our prices may seem high, we are a moderately priced hotel with all beachfront rooms. Compared to other beachfront hotels, our prices are very reasonable. Thank you for staying with us.

TV remote/channel did not work. Wi-Fi is very slow (by stateside standards). Recommend 2nd/3rd floor (no elevator).
