Review of (The former) Crowne Plaza Ocea...

Definitely not a four star hotel. Pictures on web...

Definitely not a four star hotel. Pictures on website do not accurate reflect the look/feel of the hotel. Overpriced for what you get - extras are ridiculously overpriced (if you drink the small bottle of water left in room, you will be charged $3).

Room smelled musty and a/c did not work. Hotel was operating a full occupancy, so there was no other room to move to. I was given $60 discount (on $700 stay) for my troubles. On my next-to-last night there, I was offered to have engineering come to the room to look at a/c, etc. (other room issues - bathroom), but i declined.

For an average daily rate of approx. $160/night, I expected better.

Hotel is great for kids looking for place close to beach with pool/hot tub. Not great for adults looking for a comfortable hotel to relax.
