Great Location ... not easy to check on

We have stayed at Freshwater Place twice. BOTH times it was complicated to "check in." This is because the building is mostly residential ... and front desk does NOT support VRBO clients. The location is perfect and the building is very nice. HOWEVER, you have to watch a video and get approved to use the gym. It takes 30 mins to get approved for a 60 minute workout.
