We chose this because of the high ratings on cleanliness. That’s of the utmost importance to us. Upon arrival, there were black hairs in the shower so it obviously wasn’t cleaned properly. They did come in and clean it right away. The next day, we came back to the room and the towels were changed but the bathroom floor was dirty (there was mud on the rolled up bath towel and it was still on the floor) AND the bed wasn’t made. I also left a gross stained pillow on the foot of the bed to be replaced. I had to speak to front desk and again they did come and rectify the situation. For the cost, the room should be immaculate and we were grossed out. Also, not q-tips, cotton pads or slippers. Having these simple items would be helpful and expected at this price point. The balcony was cute. Nice view. No noise disturbances but we would not stay at this property again.

We came very early in the season and appeared initially to be the only occupants. We had some ongoing issues with the TV which was a shame. The view from the room was very good and the staff very responsive. To me, the place has a slightly clinical feel. So, making the place feel a little warmer would be to advantage
