Waterfront Hotel & Marina Review

6.0

It was cute and cozy and cheap. The staff that I met were both lovely gentlemen.

The bar and grill advertised online has apparently been closed for a while now. There's also no WiFi, which was advertised online as well, and hardly any cell service. The shower sprayer felt like it was shooting rocks at my head and body and the water smelled like it was mixed with the juices that come out of dead people.

We took our luggage to the room but we did not stay and checked out prior to check-in time requesting a refund.

The price, location, and staff were nice.

This is Karyn Henson and I booked 2 rooms, 106 and 107. Around 2:30 we checked in and left until about 7:30. I am very disappointed with the water damages in both rooms. And possible molding issues. My sister did come to view a room but it probably was a better room that was showed to her. We also did not know that there wasn't any wifi, a big deal these days. And not sure if the TV has cable or whatever needed to watch TV. I called the 847 number and talked with Dave and told him we weren't going to stay and we left after that. I would think that I can get my money back for both rooms. I'm sorry that it didn't measure up to my expecting even though the rate was great. Please advise. Thank you. V/r Karyn Henson
