If a camel is a horse designed by a committee, this is a hotel designed by preschoolers. To get to our room we had to walk about 100 yards, take an elevator 1 floor and walk another 30 yards to our room. We were 10 yards from the ocean in a room with a private balcony (great right), but a service road was in between and we were constantly distrubed by garbage trucks, and other delivery vehicles. Sat night they had a clam bake off the service road they built a fire pit, and the ash and smoke went everywhere forcing us off the deck. and out of the room.

They have a small print mandatory fee of $30 per night for parking, 2 16 oz Aquafina water and internet. Well everything says internet is $10/per day so we never used a service we were forced to purchase. They are just dishonest about the true price of the room.

The staff is very friendly, but food prices are another ripp-off...$12 for a burger and fries.

Twice the front desk commented that we booked on HOTWIRE. Like we got such a good deal we should be greatful to be staying at the Hyatt. Well we were happy to leaving.

Generally we have been happy with HOTWIRE, but not this stay.

Sorry to hear your stay didn't go as well as you would have liked. Unfortunately expensive food has been a characteristic of hotels for quite some time, and resort fees are becoming more and more prevalent.

Thanks for sharing your experience with the board... hope your future hotel stays are more to your liking.
