The first room we checked into had an Oder and was right beside the front desk which made us feel unsafe. It was a girls weekend trip so safety was a must. When they moved us the room was further down the hall but it just wasn’t a good fit as we didn’t like the lay out and the fact that anyone could walk right in and come to our door.

This was a horrific experience booking thru expedia because the "what you see is what you pay" rule isnt real. I got to the property and they charged me another $122 for resort fees and NOWHERE on the site (expedia and actual website). The manager was rude and I got there at 11pm didnt get in a room til almost 1am... I wasnt offered anything upon the property manager speaking with expedia and realizing I was misinformed and they said the resort fee was for a free happy hour but it wasnt even on sight it was 20min away and for a person with no car it wasnt worth what I paid. Do not stay here unless the room is literally pennies because the only good part about this hotel is its walking distance from beach

Enjoyed the stay at the Whitelaw. $34 resort fee (we used the towels/beach chairs). A boutique hotel with an elevator that works! Vibes in the lobby and 1 min walk to the beach. Bed was actually a king size, not many channels on the TV (we had to login to an app) wifi goes in and out in the 3rd floor. Clean Restroom and spacious walk in shower.
