Excellent Stay
We stayed 4 nights in late July '05 and had no problems whatsoever. GREAT location, about a 3 minute walk from the main beach access. Staff was very friendly... we arrived at about 11am the day we were supposed to check in, and (although check-in time was 4pm) the clerk at the desk allowed us to check in then so we could get started with our vacation. The room was clean when we got there and was kept up by hotel staff every day. Amenities in the room were great, though we had to go get extra towels once (there were 4 of us). The beds weren't great but they were about as good as you'd expect a hotel bed to be. The pool was very large and kept about as clean as one would expect. Yes there was sand in the bottom as one reviewer stated. In case that reviewer hadn't noticed... it's a block from a BEACH. Practically every person who stays in that hotel goes to the beach, and when they come back many of them hop in the pool to clean off before going to their rooms, even through there's a shower right there. It would be absolutely impossible to not have to sand in the pool. The sports bar was very nice, and the Shoney's attached to the building was GREAT, very convenient and great food. Continental breakfast was definately nothing to write home about, but who can complain about FREE food? GREAT hotel!
