Think twice before paying in advance!

Spent 5 nights and they never swept or cleaned the floor. No housekeeping was done. We had to go get fresh towels when we ran out. Sand on the floors and the pool was dirty.

Great location and staff- otherwise calamity

Positives- close to beach, very good location. Friendly staff, very attentive and great service. Negatives- key card didnt work. Had to drag out big machine from the 90s to fix it. Paint peeling off bathroom door. Plumbing issues- had to get plunger to unclog the toilet and shower. Low water pressure. Old style hard spring beds like college dorms or worse. Bring your own pillows. Microwave blew up- went POP and didnt cook. They had to bring a new one and it did cold spots and burnt others. Fridge had to be turned on. Old shower curtain. Air can only be 72 degrees- old wall unit. Dim lighting in bathroom/vanity area. This would be great for teens or young 20s on a budget but for olders or injuries this is a no. Will not be back. Staff and location are the only 2 saving graces.
