"Front desk staff was courteous and easy to talk to. It is misleading when it says direct beach access, as you have to walk past 3 other hotels and down a considerable few flights of stairs to actually get to the beach.

"The room and hotel was nice. The male hotel check-in clerk (5/22 - 1-1:30pm) wasn’t friendly. I asked about an early check-in. He said I don’t know about an early check-in the normal check-in is after 3pm. I said whatever you could do would be greatly appreciated. He said he could get us in within the half hour. He never explained anything about the breakfast or where it was next day. He was off putting and annoyed. Thought all was good, but next day after going out for lunch discovered room...

"We didn’t realize they were undergoing construction for an addition. Our first room was looking right out at the new building being added next door with some construction noise. However, they were able to move us to the other side for a quieter room. Also, we were disappointed that you now have to pay $25/person to use the athletic club next door which includes the pool and hot tubs.
