"What I DID NOT like was… I stayed in room 403 and on our balcony there is 1 huge flood light for the entire building and it’s hooked from our balcony and lights it up. Insects are attracted to the light, so not only are you blinded by it, you have bugs flying everywhere and its super bright on the balcony. Sitting on a balcony, ocean front at night, listening to the ocean i. The dark is our favorite thing to do. If it’s yours, DO NOT rent room 403. Other than that, the room was wonderful and...
"Its a beautiful view for sitting and watching the waves come in. The only thing wrong was no regular blankets to throw over yourself. Everything else was excellent"
"Had to wait for staff showed up to check in. The bathroom toilet did not work. They gave us a plunger - still did not. We were told no other rooms so they would refund us. But since it was through Expedia they would not provide a refund. Call Expedia - still waiting for refund.
Also the place had a smoke smell."
