Elevator was broke the entire time and I was on the 4th floor. I had to carry bags up and down 4 flights of stairs every day. I also got stuck on the elevator when there was no out of order sign on the outside of the doors.

The hotel rooms are spacious with full kitchen (appliances, dishes, utensils, etc.) and good size bathroom. Staff was helpful when we had minor issues like needing towels. I enjoy being in rooms without carpet flooring, so that was a plus for me. About a 15 minute drive from the beach. I would stay here again!
