Negative Reviews
negative:
A little dated
Guests have mentioned that the hotel is a little dated and, therefore, could use a renovation. The exterior of the hotel, in particular, looks quite old and makes the hotel appear a little run down when you first approach it.
negative:
No views from the rooms
Past guests have been disappointed by the lack of ocean views from the hotel rooms at this property. Since the hotel is a little ways away from the ocean, and isn't very tall, the rooms don't have the views that these guests expected.
negative:
Bright skylights
There have been complaints from guests staying on the top floor about the light from the skylight waking them up in the morning. This took away from their experience because they could not sleep as long as they had wished.
