Beach trip

We went for a family beach trip, the location was perfect, we were able to just walk across the street to the beach, we could walk to restaurants and activities nearby. I didn’t like the breakfast too much it could have been better. But the rooms were spacious, and bed was comfortable.

Overall, this was a good experience but not sure if we would stay again. Front desk was very nice! Cleaning staff… Rude, None of them ever spoke a word unless you spoke to them first, and even then, it was like it was killing them to be friendly. They start cleaning rooms very early, which is understandable, however they were extremely loud… Slamming doors, banging stuff around, playing music on portable speakers… ZERO consideration for guests!!
