The Taj Mahal it is not. It is a dated building but a great location. The view is amazing and no hotel is closer to the beaches, bars and shopping. The free rentals are an amazing value if the weather is cooperating. The bed only actual complaint is the mattresses are some of the worse I’ve ever slept on. I wish the pool were heated. Breakfast lady is amazing!! All the staff we interacted with seemed genuinely grateful to have us there, not just putting on a happy face. This was our second year here for spring break, so whatever the minor downfalls are, its overall value is great. Although we didn’t bring our dogs, we found it to be pet friendly and lots of friendly pets were there. Bottom line, if you are looking for a budget friendly hotel within walking distance of the beaches and bars, this place is great!!
