Cockroach

Floor was grimy, probably from some spray that didn’t get wiped away. Everything was fine, if not awesome. However, while packing up to leave, my husband stepped on a large cockroach. If we weren’t already leaving, I don’t know that I could have stayed an extra night knowing that more bugs were probably crawling around the room.
I’m old-school and still use an iPod, so used it for size comparison.

Great hotel/resort

Great place to stay! The employees were so friendly and great at thier jobs. Check in was fast, everything was as it should have been. Reservation accurate for what I pd for. I even got to pick what floor we were on. The room was clean and well equipped. Only one elevator was working.not a big problem except for last night when a tour bus arrived. Still didnt wait long. The breakfast was ok. Mostly carbs. There was an omelet that you microwaved, not that good, some yogurt, oranges and bananas and the rest was bread. We loved our stay and we will be back!

Good choice for beach view room

The beach view was beautiful. The actual room was fine, nothing special but it was clean. Hotel clearly older the elevator wasn’t working when we got there. Breakfast was the basics for a hotel; coffee, bagels, yogurt, frozen waffles. If you’re coming for the beach it’s a great choice.

Breakfast was okay. Most of it is too much sugar for a diabetic. That should change. Oranges and bananas, bread yogurt with too much sugar.

Take a Pass

For the price I paid, not worth the stay but the location and the fact of it being a holiday is the only reason. Very dated, and the elevators were broke a lot of the time, one or the other were. Thin walls, and we found a dead roach on the floor. I've stayed at a lot of places on VB Oceanfront and this was not one of the good ones. The people however were friendly. Didn't eat their breakfast so I can't say how that was. Very tight parking deck as well.
