It was supposed to be a deluxe room but it was just a basic room with a bit of extra room. No hair dryer and the beach view is a stretch, it’s more of a road view. Would not stay there again.

When ever I have stayed here in the past I have shown up n if my room was ready I was able to check in early regardless if it was before 3pm. I waited almost 5 mins for someone to help me n the lady was rude n just said check in isn’t until 3pm it was 2:20pm. I’ve show up at 1pm before n was able to check in this lady was just rude for no reason!! Really makes me want to never stay there again!

A fairly basic room, but comfortable and well thought out. We had a corner room in the rear of the property, which was near one of the utility rooms and was therefore a little noisy early in the evening.
