The room was not cleaned properly. The carpet was not vacuumed; the bathroom tub was not cleaned properly. Dirt was easily seen on the floor around the refrigerator. The patio furniture was filthy. The curtains smelled and needs to cleaned/replaced. The mattress was not comfortable at all. Overall, the room did not smell fresh which is likely attributed to the old, smelly curtains and carpeting. On a positive note - the staff was great! I was able to hear the live music from the Ocean Annie's Beach bar downstairs.

Our suite was clean with ocean view, beach access nice. Patio door needed repair and wouldn't slide open. Our unit had 2 wooden chairs & table. No comfortable ones to sit in to read or watch tv. Luggage carts old and unwieldy. Staff very nice. Multi level parking garage annoying . Best feature: it's on the beach.

The bathroom tub, bedroom wall lamp above the nightstand, balcony slide door, and balcony furniture had rusted and broken areas that were patched up. The room smelled mildewed! There was no shower curtain, only one broken up bar of soap, no rags in the bathroom, and the slide door lock wouldn’t work properly.. had to call maintenance to repair it. Finally, the hot water NEVER got hot..only warm! It looked different from the beautiful pics online, for sure!
