- BTBrandi TeagueJan 2, 20265.0Stayed here the night before our cruise, and used the $15/day parking for the week. Rooms are roomy, we had a balcony with the absolute BEST view of the ocean! We were right next door to The Spot, ordered food. It was fresh & yummy! The staff was so nice, breakfast had a variety. Pictures were an afterthought & mainly to document my nerdy kids getting ready for a week of no wifi!
- JNJames NDec 27, 20251.0I wasn't told that guest parking costs extra. I had to pay $15 for parking at this hotel. I selected Ocean View at reservation. I got half of Ocean View (see photos). Room/bathroom has nice modern style and nice accessories (see photos), but wooden floor is dirty. I walked bare feet for 5 minutes. Bottom of my feet turned black.
- ADAngel DayDec 24, 20251.0This is a very unsecured location. They take your information and expose it all. Driver’s license and CC information exposed. Please be very careful about this location! Staff is not as friendly as they should be but not as rude as they could be.
- EMEmily MaxwellDec 19, 20251.0Do not book. The night we left for the cruise our truck was broken into. Came back to a broken window, taped up and not given any refund. Not safe to leave your car. We had nothing to steal and gate was not closed to parking garage.
- AHAlora HenleyDec 15, 20252.0Roaches! The first room we were assigned had roaches in it, the small kind that travel in packs. We saw 4 total in the 5 minutes before we decided to vacate and report. 3 of them scurried into the wall behind the TV, so we have no idea how many there actually were. The second room we got seemed ok, but I still saw a dead one in the bathroom... We were tired after a 4 hour drive and needed sleep before boarding our cruise next morning, but after the first room we had a hell of a time relaxing enough to get decent sleep. The breakfast buffet was awful. The eggs were so unbelievably overcooked that they turned to rubber. I could tell just from looking they'd be inedible. If you overcook scrambled eggs, the protein inside tightens up like crazy, they turn hard and rubbery, and squeeze out moisture into the pan... these were SWIMMING in liquid, so I could tell they were badly overcooked. The turkey sausage (only sausage offered) were bland and rubbery. The oatmeal was, at least, to my liking, but I know I'm weird and like the gloopy, gluey texture that most hotels do with their oatmeal.
