Ocean Resort
"Gorgeous oceanfront view from the 5th floor, but the room looks like a crime scene from NYPD blue. Dirty tub, broken safe. On the plus side, got a bit of a thrill from riding the elevator. For the daring only"

Aqua Vista Resort Hotel
"When I got there they were giving my room away when I booked the hotel it was pay at property. I booked 3 nights and they told me they gave one night away. I had to go somewhere else for the third night. The place was dirty. The only good thing was the ocean view. Don’t waste your time."
