Was put in the room next to the front office. Walls were thin and heard front office taking phone calls all night. Someone (sounded like the office) was playing music late into the evening (2 am). Property is not really close to the bay (in my opinion). Charged $50 for a pet fee.

Walls are pretty thin. Vent fan in bathroom is extremely loud. Road noise. Room smelled like cat pee. More blankets in the room or heavier on the bed would have been nice. But it's clean, staff is friendly, room is pretty, soaps are nice, shower is good. Parking is good as long as you don't have a tall vehicle, if you do be able to turn around in the first part of the parking lot because you can't go through that tunnel. Pretty good place and well priced.
