The room was great and had two areas. The bedroom and the other room was furnished with a table, sofa, chair and TV. Very spacious. We did not have a view but did go to the beach which was just on the other side of the dunes. Only thing that was a negative was the workers with their big trucks making a lot of racket when they left in the morning.

Not fancy, but nice enough. The room and furniture looked a little dated and the carpet was stained. But it was very clean and comfortable enough. Two large newer TVs in the room. The staff were really friendly and the breakfast was much better than expected. Over all, a great deal for the price.
