Secondhand smoking by the pool..

Getting a bit old and tired..
Though many guests describe the rooms as comfortable, some report that the decor has had its day, the carpets are showing some wear, and the bathrooms are particularly ripe for renovation. Some guests on the second floor were dismayed to find the building has no elevator, and found lugging their wetsuits and similar gear up the steps to be inconvenient.
negative:
Technical difficulties..
Some guests have reported a weak or nonexistent Wi-Fi signal in their rooms, while others found the air conditioning system effective but aged and noisy.
