Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Beds were uncomfortable. Parking garage was extremely small and hard to maneuver in. Ended up parking across the street which hotel charged an additional fee to do so. Elevator was small. Easy access to beach however the boardwalk had numerous nails sticking up. Seemed dirty around the access and a group of possible workers hung out in the parking garage near beach access. Did not feel comfortable at all.

Wi Fi did not work the whole time we were there. My husband cut his arm pretty bad on the pool gate and no first aid kit was offered. The manager only gave him 1 band aid. Luckly, I had a first aid kit in my car. It felt like the staff did not care at all that a quest got hurt on their property.

The staff was VERY rude. Didn't recognize we were even in the lobby to check in. Didn't have the skill set to communicate - AT ALL. No smiles, no "hello", no "have a great stay." The floors in our room were filthy and sticky - the bottom of our feet was disgusting. We didn't want to put ANYTHING on the floor. The towels had holes in them - worn out. VERY LOUD! WE WILL NOT RETURN.
