We had a nice stay. We were able to check in early and the staff was friendly and accommodating. Breakfast that was included had a number of choices. It would only be better with access to beach towels instead of having to purchase them.

It was in a great location, right on the beach. The room could have used a better cleaning and updated bathroom. the toilet was not running right and took them a while to get it fixed.
