We stay in the lower lobby rooms off and on as recently as last July and really don’t mind them. Since Irma most were updated bigger TVs and furniture. Years ago they may have had a musty smell but now they have a dehumidifier in the room. Never saw any bugs but wouldn’t surprise me since it’s the tropics or after a heavy rain maybe. They do have a high window which we don’t really mind. Still just steps to the beach. Actually I like the fact that they stay cooler and a little darker rooms if you’d like to sleep longer and cheaper on the budget.
