Bridget at front desk was very helpful. Hotel/Rooms could be updated but had everything you needed. Clean rooms and very spacious. Best views from balcony that was very large and on waterfront. Easy access to walk the beach and indoor pool. Wish we could get a last minute deal price this summer! We would stay for a Week!

Room had several air purifiers in the space, along with a musty smell. We only stayed for a few hours - after returning from dinner after checking in, we found that the bed linens not only hadn't been changed, but were stained, wet, and had some sort of bodily fluids on them. Due to booking with Expedia, we were unable to get a refund, but we left and drove home at midnight rather than stay another minute at this place.

The decor in the rooms is pretty dated. They actually upgraded me, and were very kind, but the living area and bedroom looked like they were pulled out of an 80s jc penney catalogue.

This condo was so accessible for us—parking, outside access, taking dog out. No steps!! The condo had comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, large living room area with RECLINER!! The pool was nice. The cookout was great. The only negative is very difficult to get to the water. Would be nice to have something over sand that can be walked on with cane or wheelchair. Would love to return.

Our hotel room was dirty. There were horrific stains (was someone murdered in the doorway?) on the carpet in the hallway and the living room. There was mold on the tub caulk. I killed a crawling psocid on the kitchen counter. But the worst issue was outside. We rented the room specifically to use the outdoor space. The balcony outside a doorwall had chairs and tables, and steps down to a private beach with nice beach chairs. Unfortunately, the entire outdoor space was infested with tiny bugs; not just at night, but both days. Most dead, some alive. The "owner" said they were midges as he tried to hit at them with a towel. The first day we still tried to go down to the beach, where the sand was completely covered with some type of flying ants/fleas that found our feet and legs a potential food source. Needless to say, we found the outside space unusable. The layout of space -- doorwalls to the the balcony from the kitchen and bedroom -- seems convenient, but also provides limited privacy. When we mentioned the issues at checkout we were charged full price.
