Checked in with the office super early (before 9am), attendant was nice and took my number to call when the room had been clean. Rooms are aged but functional and very clean. Def good for a place to crash if you’re going to be at the beach and out all day.

The purpose of making a reservation is to ensure you have a place to stay after traveling. When we arrived there was a sign no vacancy. Rang the bell as I thought I was surely part of the place being full. Nope they gave someone my room. I arrived around 6pm. A phone call would have been nice.

The bedding had holes, the mattress had a spring on the bed that was pressing against my back and sides. We had teenage/young adults banging on the door next to us acting like police around 1:30 am running up and down all the rooms being loud and rude. We could not even connect to the wifi.
