The first time I went into the shower, it stopped mid bathing while there was shampoo in my hair. Come down to the front desk was able to get into a different room. Had to pack up everything and move with shampoo in my hair to the other room. When we moved to the other room it was 83° in there, and it smelled very bad. Called down to the front desk had to go back down a second time to get a different key for another room which I am appreciative we were able to move rooms due to the two inconveniences. The third room the bathroom light when you turned it on, proceeded to flicker repeatedly and there’s no way we could’ve used the light like that. It hurt all of our heads . Then we called down to the desk and had to go down a third time to get a different room key again appreciative that they moved us to a different room where I was able to finally finish washing the shampoo out of my hair and very disappointed in this hotel . My son dropped a napkin when he was getting his breakfast and did not notice. The lady who was taking care of the breakfast, noticed the napkin and got upset and made hand gestures and grunting about the napkin being on the floor after she cleaned that area when my son arrived to the table, I was at. I proceeded to let him know that he dropped a napkin and he turned around and picked it up and threw it away, I could not believe the behavior of the employee . The swimming pool was also very green and smelled very bad. I have a video of the bathroom light that was flickering repeatedly, but I am unable to Upload it here.

Air conditioner worked well; fan ran very low when compressor was off. Bed comfort was fair, but pillows were hard. TV was mounted on wall—out of my way, since I never watch it. Internet used portal login. Without the extra cost boost, Internet speed was very slow (0.80mbps), but it was fast enough for e-mail and web browsing. (But... I had to log in again every time I restarted the computer.) Room had two beds, two chairs, a tiny night stand(fastened to wall), one table (fastened to wall), and one luggage stand. Adequate electrical outlets (but it was difficult to insert plugs into the outlets). One mirror (behind wash bowl). One wall hanger for clothes (one hook was missing). Room somewhat small. Noisy bathroom fan comes on with light—a disadvantage. It was so noisy that I unplugged it during my stay. Toilet height low (15”). Countertop height good (33”), but wash bowl protruded 3” above counter top. Shower was good, but… had shower stall only—no tub. Shower stall was small, and shower door was difficult to close (I was afraid I would break it). It was difficult to prewarm the shower without getting water on the floor. Two bars of soap were the only comps provided—no shampoo or tissues. No carpet in room. When I turned on the faucet, the aerator sprayed a tiny drizzle of water sideways! (Someone had apparently tried to increase the flow and messed it up—I fixed it a little bit.) Faucet had extremely parsimonious flow restrictor—flow rate was about 1 gallon per hour. I would have removed it, but then it would spray water all over the counter. No fridge or microwave in room. Work light over table did not work (but their maintenance man fixed it relatively quickly after I reported it). No elevator or sprinkler. About seven o’clock on Friday evening, some people came and started cutting the limbs off a beautiful palm tree by the street. That made me very upset because I thought they were going to take it down, but they only trimmed off some of the dead limbs and then left. The room was fairly quiet within, although I often heard noises from outside. The room door did not close tightly; I could see light all around it. This hotel is a good choice if you are travelling with pets, especially dogs.

The service is average. The location of the hotel is very good. You can watch the sunrise in the morning and the moonrise in the evening. The scenery is very beautiful. There are restaurants and shops in the surrounding area, and you can walk to several small island-style parks on the seaside, as well as museums and art galleries. The coastal promenade is also very beautiful, with popular science installations that travel through the solar system, and other art installations. Convenient to the Lexington Aircraft Carrier Museum and Aquarium/Animal Conservation Center across the river. In short, if you are not asking for a sexual vacation, staying here is a good value for money.

The toilet and shower were not clean at all. Had to clean then myself. The shower had no water pressure. They charge you for parking per day but our access card did not work the entire weekend. We had to press the service button to be let every time and we got stuck out there one time when no one was at the front desk. When we let the front desk know, she did not help fix the problem she just said get a ticket and the gate will open, but that did not help we we needed to exit.

Evaluation: The hotel front desk is friendly with its own parking building, parking 2F can go directly to the lobby, streamlined. The room is in good sanitary conditions, the balcony can see the aircraft carrier Lexington, straight line distance 5KM, and the Denan Art Museum designed by Philip Johnson is within walking distance. Recommended to stay! Room tips: It is recommended to choose a high-rise sea view room without a balcony, which can be overlooked by the front. The rooms with balcony are all facing the sea, the location is not ideal.
