Coral Reef Inn & Suites

8/10 Good
"Room was decently clean , definitely needs a bit more updating. Our room had a bubble in the floor laminate.. like a fairly large bubble you could see it the moment you walked into the room. The beds are horrible… if you have back problems this is not the stay. Breakfast included continental so warm yogurt (not in the fridge) bread for toast , 2 different kinds of cereal. A muffin thing. Some small fruit like apples. That was about it. The pool was decently clean. We stayed 3 night and it does have a weird smell but we woke up today and walked out of our room and the entire first floor smelt like someone peed in the hallway!!! I would definitely say if your looking for cheap place to stay I would stay here again. It’s NOT a high end hotel. But the sheets were nice and the pillows where comfortable."
