The breakfast buffet had a good variety of options. The rooms were spacious and clean.
I had to pack and unpack luggage every day for a week because we changed rooms three times. The facilities seemed old and worn.

Acceptable Stay with Noticeable Wear

My room, a King Wave Room, was worn. Some of the furnishings were too worn for a hotel of this supposed caliber. The minibar fridge nearly fell apart when I opened it. Loud music one evening disrupted the peace. It stopped at 10:30 PM, but it was still an annoyance when trying to sleep early.
