Check in was easy at the kiosk. The room was basic but did the job for sleep and a shower. We noticed that some people claim to have an issue with getting their deposit back, which was concerning. At check out, it's explained that it takes up to 5 days for the hold to clear, which it did. For the price, this place was good. It's close to the beach, near dining, has an indoor hot tub, and plenty of parking.

Disliked: Amenities
Clean Room. Fine for the rate paid. However, it was a Deluxe King Suite with full kitchen. However, they offer no utensils, plates, cup, pans, nothing. Very odd that it was not mentioned in the listing that nothing was supplied. I went and purchased the necessities and upon return the power was out to the neighborhood. No lights no heat. Not the properties fault as weather was in the area. But, there was no one attending the property and the listed number for the property did not work. No way to check in or check out. Il ultimately left after 3 hours in the dark and contacted Expedia. I was rebooked at another property and was assured a full refund would be given.
