I am 76 years old and you need to put place mats in the showers and tubs or some kind of non-slip surface so people my age with not good balance won't slip and fall. Once soap is on the surface of the tub it becomes very slippery. You also need grabs so older people can grasp in the shower and tub and bars to help us get on and off the toilet .

We enjoyed being right on the beach. Walls were thin and the lady next door was loud and cussing. We did smell pot a few times during our 2 day stay. I dont appreciate that. Could not tell where it was coming from though.

Great stay

Our stay is alway great. We live staying at the Schooner inn. Hot tub great, ocean front great, rooms are clean but floors seem a little older; but the cleaning staff make it better 👍. Parking is always a little tight but we are used to it. My wife and I came twice this year. If we could come more, we absolutely would
