Have stayed at Sugar Sands a few times for 30yrs or so, it's not what it used to be. But, go in with standard expectations and it's fine.

The only good thing about this place is the location on the beach! The beach out front was not busy, and beautiful. However, the staff there was rude, besides the manager we spoke to. Our room was dirty, smelled like weed, had too many flies to count. We had a dirty shower curtain and dirty towels the minute we checked in. Our shower had little water pressure and no hot water! Most of the outlets in the room didn’t work. And the kitchen wear provided was dirty upon check in. Do not be fooled by the ratings on here like I was. If we had another place to stay, we would’ve!

The room was decent. Mostly clean. The balcony had cigarette butts on the floor. The a/c unit drained on the balcony floor so it stayed wet. The a/c was loud. Inside the room as well as on the balcony. The stairwells and breezeways need cleaning and fresh paint. The elevator was hot and slow so we used the stairs most of the time.
