Once we passed reception, the air was so thick with aerosol disinfectant, I had trouble breathing. It was a large and probably at one time very impressive hotel, but the carpet in our room was so dirty my clean socks were soiled in an hour of walking about in our room. Shower had new tiles on the walls, but the floor was disgusting. The grout between the floor tiles was speckled black with mold or mildew, and the shower drained so slowly you had to stand in a puddle of mold the whole time. No hand towels, no washcloths, just one thin bath towel barely larger than the bath mat, per guest. The twin beds were squeaky but okay. Two very thin pillows per bed. I appreciated the free breakfast, which was okay. Staff not rude but not very friendly. It seems like a difficult place to work, as well as stay. Great location.

Beautiful views, great location to walking trail and beach. Dining was good but there were lots of children which wasn’t a big deal just something to be aware of. Live music was a fun touch!

Needs updating

The location and the main areas are very nice. However, the rooms are very outdated. The beds are uncomfortable. The restaurant is ok but not what you’d expect.
