"The hotel was close to the beach, but that was the only positive. Don't stay here if you want a comfortable bed and functioning kitchenette with clean utensils.2015-10-13"
"Be aware that this is an older hotel. The room was clean, but the phone didn't work and there were other electrical problems. Our bill was adjusted due to these issues. The pool and beach were great.2015-04-08"
