Guests say
Guests generally expressed dissatisfaction with the hotel, highlighting poor service and the lack of amenities as significant downsides. Many noted the uncleanliness of the hotel, coupled with closed restaurants and an empty atmosphere that contributed to a feeling of desolation. While some guests appreciated the friendly staff, it wasn't enough to offset the numerous complaints about the outdated facilities and overall value.

Sara, Sept 2019
Cons (-) The hotel is run down. There is $15 resort fee for the amenities...but I still don’t get what the fee was for. The pool was closed “for the season”, no one told us about the WiFi password until we had to call down. There was no information in the room. Each bed had only two pillows and had to ask front desk for more. Staff seem to all have attitudes and very unprofessional. We booked two rooms so ...

Pros (+) Friendly staff. Older but beautiful hotel. A little spooky seeing grand spaces without the people and slot machines.
Cons (-) We thought the casino was there but it was not. Parking should be free for guests. The beach was not open we had to go to the next hotel's section of the beach, not a big deal though.

Pros (+) Location and staff
Cons (-) They were overbooked so for our 12 year anniversary we were moved to a room with 2 queens as the one we booked days prior 1 king was not available. Their excuse was that they work on a first come first serve basis thus reserving is a waste of time.

Pros (+) Location.
Cons (-) When arriving at the front desk I was not greeted and the only one in line for about 10 minutes. I was charged $50 early check in for being there an hour early and had to get to the golf course. When checking out it was the same thing. No one had a smile and I felt that paying over $200 for a room I would have been treated better. Especially since there is not even a casino. Would not recommend to...

Cons (-) When we asked at check in if there was a gym we were told yes. The next morning my roommate went looking for the gym and it was a sad sight to see. The image online is false advertising for the gym it claims the hotel provides. There’s nothing to do here. Nothing was open to eat at. Never staying here again. It’s a ghost town.
