Anonymous, Jul 2017
Pros (+) The room was super clean and parking was easy. The location is awesome and it made for a great stay.
Cons (-) The fan in the bathroom didn't work well so the steam from showers built up a ton, the air was always very thick after a shower.

Pros (+) This is situated just over the dunes from the beach with included parking. We stayed in a suite which really needs updating. The couch was orange and office like. The place was clean but you just didn't get a pristine feel to it. We were close to the stairs and bar which made it loud mornings and evenings.
Cons (-) The rugs felt worn as was the dated furniture.

Pros (+) A somewhat retro environment (actual keys instead of cards), but large, clean room. Right on the ocean, on-site restaurant/bar and near many other attractions. Safe parking area.
Cons (-) No conditioner provided (conditioning shampoo is not the same), slow elevator and funky, scratchy bedspread.

Pros (+) Room was nicer than I expected, clean and well furnished. No view or balcony, but wasn't expecting that at the rate I got. Good location on beach. Lots of families and young singles. Plenty of activities for both. I didn't eat there so can't speak to dining.
Cons (-) Only problem was finding a place to park for check in. Minor issue.
