The entire staff from beginning to end were amazing. Kristen was very attentive via text. Loved Lisa the bartender. Andrew was awesome at check out. The hotel is very close to the beach and many restaurants. Breakfast was decent. The only thing that hotel needs to spruce it up is get rid of the carpet inside and outside of the rooms. We enjoyed our stay either way and will definitely be back.

Main problem was that the water temperature in the shower is extremely inconsistent and constantly drastically changes. It will go from a comfortable temperature for a minute then it will gain the ability to evaporate tungsten, wait 30 seconds and it'll be absolute zero.

Room was clean and adequate. Reading lights on both sides of bed were convenient as well as plug ins for chargers on each night stand. No frills but met our needs for a reasonable price. Renovating first floor so assuming that will bring upgrades to the facility in general. Landscaping and foliage very well maintained and attractive. Staff very friendly.
