The pool was right outside our room. Could use some paint and reinforcement on the stairs. The rooms were ok. The price was t expensive so I guess I got what I paid for? The front desk clerk was absolutely amazing! We didn’t have towels in the room when we got there. We left to go to the beach. 28-38 mins depending on traffic but there is a gas station within walking distance and another right down the road. A WAWA gas station. Amazing coffee and breakfast burritos. The nitpick things aren’t relevant it was good for a last minute booking
