Great place right by the ocean. All the other reviews are accurate about front desk wait time - it is significantly long, whether you're checking in/out. Also, the elevators do take a LONG time. And yes, it could use a renovation. And the cell service (for T-mobile) was poor. Wi-fi speed, not the best. That said, this is the most budget place that's right on the beach, so I can't say I'm surprised about any of the aforementioned things. Don't expect this to be one of the fancy high-rise hotels surrounding it - there are lots of families, kids, and normal people on vacation milling around the lobby and waiting for their Ubers. It's like a Days Inn surrounded by Hilton Garden Inns. Which I'm actually fine with, since I wasn't trying to spend all of my vacation inside there anyway.
