The accommodations were comfortable for our purpose. We didn’t spend much time there. The only complaint was the walls were thin in that we could hear conversations in next room and outside. The Keurig coffee maker was broken. But staff were friendly and complimentary breakfast were very nice. Lives our morning walk on the beach. I would stay here again.

I will definitely return, the rooms are very clean and have very important things such as coffee, refrigerator, microwave, glasses, etc. What I loved the most is the bathroom soaps there are enough such as shampoo, conditioner and soap. So 10/10
