Mixed Feelings I booked this hotel for our honeymoon based on customer reviews. A few weeks before we left I had seen a review were someone had said the rooms were out dated. Which concerned me. We were staying for a week in a oceanfront suite and its something we will probably never spend money on again. We normally wouldn't do something like this had it not been for recently getting married. I had called the hotel and they explained that half the hotel is newer then the other half. I had explained this is our honeymoon and if at all possible to be in the updated section. The women on the phone was very nice and said she would do what she could for us. She also asked if we liked champagne. I told her yes. And she said that she would have some waiting in our room when we arrived due to us being on our honeymoon. When we arrived there was a industrial type fan pointing right at our door blowing on it. When we entered our room it smelled musty. And we were for sure not in the updated section. We never did receive our champagne which was disappointing. I did not complain. We were on the road for 8hrs and didn't want to end up being in a worse room then this. I tried to use fabric air freshener but it didn't work. We got used to the smell while being in the room. But every time we entered we had to get used to it all over again. The good thing is after awhile you didn't notice it anymore. The view was nice besides the run down empty lot that was to the right of us. I tried not to look at it and keep my eyes forward while on the balcony relaxing. I was surprised to see we had a balcony off our bedroom as well. But unfortunately that was facing the run down space right next to us. So we didn't use it. The breakfast where good. My husband is the type who can't eat the same thing day after day. They had a real nice variety of foods. And all the stuff was very friendly. Parking was easy too. Not all floors have a ice machine which I found inconvenient. They seem to rotate washer and dry or ice machine. Cleaning staff seemed very friendly. Whenever I requested something for that day they left if for us. I don't believe they were vacuuming the rugs though which I did notice when I 1st came into our room. I am not sure if I would stay here again. I think I might like to try more update hotel. Its wasn't the best place I stayed but also not the worst.
