"Though the property is older, it is well maintained and clean. The rooms are easily accessed with door codes rather than cards that are easily lost or may malfunction. The beds are clean and comfortable. The rooms are well situated with a full view of the ocean. We enjoyed our stay and will be returning soon!"
