The courtyard and pool were nice. The door to the room we were staying in if you didnt lock the door you could just push the door open. There was hardly any water pressure in the shower. The pillows were flat and the bed lets just say we wouldve more comfortable on the floor. Very thin walls. Vut close to good bbq and not far from the beach.

This was a night away, no kid, adult, romantic QUICK planned trip. For being quick and unplanned...this was an oasis. Not only was the room very spacious...but I fell in love with the courtyard area, pool, and location. The outside front is cute and decorative...the door by parking is well "questionable"...but once we opened that door it was a AHhhh moment. The French doors leading to little patio area/walk way was so inviting. Now the room could use some upgrades ESPECIALLY a USB port for charging phone. We got a plug and ran to the Dollar General right across the street. Which I might add the sweetest employees work over there. A few touch ups around room and bathroom but nothing major. Like I said we were very impressed. Usually we stay at resorts but plan ahead for things like that. We finally tried the pool the last day. Not only was the temperature lovely but very clean and open 8 to 8...which I wish was opened later since we didn't see any kids and hubby and I would have loved a late night dip. Location was 5 min drive to beach/pier/restaurant in one direction AND 5 min drive to historic downtown which had some of the cutest shops. No if you are a shark lover like me ..I highly recommend checking out Earthly Treasures, Shark Frenzy, and Fossil Frenzy all who had nice employees. If you are eaters like us might I recommend Salty Old Dog, Pops Sunset Grill, and Sharky's restaurants. Make sure you walk on the pier too.

The bed was really hard. These was a lot of people yelling most of the night. The people in the room next to us had a chihuahua barking most of the night and when I brought it to the attention of the front office staff I was told it’s was a service dog…. I’m sorry but true service dogs do not bark all night or react in the manner this dog was reacting.
