Second time staying here. Nice and clean
Not on the beach but close enough. Very well priced when you compare it to the others. Would be nice if they had ice machines on each floor, you have to go to the lobby to get ice. will stay here again!

Do NOT stay here.

If THIS IS THE ONLY PLACE AVAILABLE then go to a different city. It’s not worth your entire vacation being ruined. It’s a $50 room for 300+

The ROOMS ARE NOT renovated as stated. It’s only the lobby.

Stay away. No electricity in our room.

This hotel is conveniently located. It was updated with modern decor.

This hotel is filthy! The rooms were halfway cleaned and the beds had crumbs and stains all over them. There was a problem with a lack of staff. The front desk attendant left the office building to visit the rooms. I can understand them being short staffed because the whole area was short staffed. No on wants to work which is no fault of theirs. The staff they did have weren't friendly. The view from our room was of a strip club and a junky parking lot

Booked through hotels.com. Arrived late due to flight change. Arrival was 5 a.m. with a 2 night booking which would leave essentially leaving us with what be staying one night. Went into first room and smelled so badly of smoke we asked for a different room. Second room smelled very badly of mildew. Air conditioner actually had mold on it and covered in visible dust and dirt. Bathroom was so dirty that sealed the deal not to stay there. When we told the front desk about the second room, his answer was sorry we have the rooms cleaned and he wasn't the manager. Contacted hotels.com who inturn contacted the hotel. They would only refund one night and considered one night a cancellation fee.

What a horrible misrepresentation...
This place is a ABSOLUTE DUMP!
We arrived and had our c.c. charged before seeing the room and was told they were recently remodeled. What we saw was HORRIFIC...Bums partying in the lot(see pics)..Then I went back to cancel my reservation and the owner "Patel" told us we had to forfeit half our charges.(98.00).We didnt even walk in the room except to take pics!!!
THIS PLACE IS SO MISREPRESENTED...BEWARE..THE PICS ARENT EVEN CLOSE..No parking because of dumpsters and debris...carpet stuck to our shoes...smelled like a refuse container...terribly dirty...broken tiles and mold in tub...NEVER HAVE I SEEN SUCH A DUMP ACTUALLY BE IN BUSINESS...PLEASE SEE PICS....MR. PATEL..SEE YOU IN COURT!

A bit dated but that is expected at a budget motel. The staff is friendly and helpful. Everything about the room was fine. The breakfast is better than most but the addition of scrambled eggs would be nice. A view to the Gulf was a nice touch.

Room tip: The upper floors on one side provide views to the Gulf of Mexico
