someone went through my suitcase and stole the jewelry that I had hidden in my suitcase.
The customer service was excellent they let me check in early with a small $25 fee but they were very accommodating and had excellent cleaning service definitely will be going back, and the manager she was so friendly and awesome and eager to help with any issue she deserves a raise I'll probably go back just because of how friendly and helpful she was

Simple, clean, and oceanfront with really personable and helpful staff.
The only con to mention is that the room had that overwhelming perfumey smell to coverup cleaning solution, but it was tolerable once we let the room air out.
Overall, I would recommend to anyone and plan to stay here again.
We thought this property was a great choice in this price range. It looked as if it had been newly renovated and was clean. The staff was friendly and welcoming. We have no complaints except that we do wish there was free breakfast offered, but the lower price did compensate for this. We would stay here again and would rate this 4 1/2 stars.
