The location is amazing. You're on a georgous beach and within walking distance to shops, restaurants, and the pier. The balcony view of the Gulf is breathtaking. We saw dolphins within feet of the beach daily. However, the amenities our dated and worn out. This hotel is passed due for an update. The carpets are dirty, and the furniture is dinged and or dirty. There was mold on our bathroom wall. The fan in the bathroom only made noise without exhausting anything. None of the toiletries were filled. The room had a smell that wasn't clean. The inner duvet was stained. The lack of cleanliness did not make this a relaxing stay. We did not enjoy being in our room at all. Only one of the two small pools was heated, making the cold one virtually unusable in March. The lounge chairs on the patio also have seen better days. The elevator is slow, banged up, and dirty. There is a waffle station for breakfast but the rest of the food is processed eggs or sausage. The only fruit offered is oranges and a few bananas. This property is a motel grade stay and not what you would expect from a beachfront hotel.
