Nice area to stay for a few days, with a beach view. We did have, scaffolding outside, low hot water, and the bathtub was clogged, but we are easy going. The staff was nice and professional, they moved us with no issues. We go there about twice a year or more.

room was good, staff at check in was cold and non-welcoming. She really didn't explain amenities until I asked and did not crack a smile, at all. It would be nice to have staff be friendly and welcoming to start the visit right. Other than that it was a good location next to beach but not really impressed.

Both sides of the hotel were covered top to bottom with scaffolding. I did receive a email that there was construction going on, but I did not realize that it encapsulated the entire building. When we entered, someone was basically being chased out of the building she was muttering to herself and shouting. It was a little creepy. She wasn’t a guest of the hotel. She just kind of snuck in and the staff did their best to get her out. The inside was nice, and we were greeted with a really delicious ginger apple sparkling mocktail. The room itself was OK. The bed was super comfortable, but they have a frosted glass barn door on the bathroom so anytime you walk in there the motion sensing lights would go on and illuminate the entire room. So a midnight trip to the bathroom lights up the entire room. I didn’t see a way of turning off the motion sensor. The remote control for the TV hardly worked, and the guide listed shows that were not actually playing, even though we were in the right time slot. Also, the movie choice was lacking and they were each $25, which seemed really high. I guess this place used to be a Holiday Inn, and it shows. I probably would not come back unless they had a really good deal and I simply needed a place to stay. The staff was really nice though, and we ate at the Moofish Café in the morning, and the food was delicious.

Our room was clean and we did get to check in early however that was not the issue. We booked through Expedia and no where on that site did it state construction was going on. We found out when we got there. Booked an ocean view which was not cheap and we had nothing but scaffolding in front of our balcony which made the view even worse as we were towards the back of the building overlooking a parking garage. I would also like to state that the photos shown on the website looked a lot nicer than the hotel appeared. When we tried to eat at Aqua Beachfront Bar we sat down and waited almost 15mins before we ended up leaving and going somewhere else off property because no one waited on us or even acknowledged we were there even though others were eating around us. Overall we feel like we were misled in activities and view from our room. We do not plan to return and hope that you update your website and make sure your third party booking sites let others know that construction is happening.
