SUMMER, Jacksonville Beach

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The handle in the shower was broken so I could not take a shower. The toilet paper holder was positioned almost behind the toilet so it was hard to reach. There was some kind of rumbling off and on all night which interrupted sleep. At 7:30 in the morning some kind of machinery was used in the parking area right outside my room: very loud, prevented sleep. I will never stay there again.
