Decent stay with some drawbacks
beach accessfriendly staffawesome bardust layeruncomfortable bedloud music
The location across from the beach was great. I liked the easy access to the ocean. The staff were also friendly. The oyster bar beside the hotel was awesome.
I found dust along the door frames, it bothered me. The bed was uncomfortable, and the pillows smelled stale. Loud dance music played outside our windows all night. I also saw stains on the bathroom walls.

Adequate stay with some issues
dirty bedsheetslack of concern
The room was not as clean as I expected I found hair on the bedsheets. Staff apologized quickly but did not seem very concerned. I think it's better to spend a bit more money elsewhere to ensure better service.
