Mar 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location and nice enough. We stayed for 3 nights over Spring Break. The place was clean and walking distance the beach which was our main focus. We enjoyed our stay and the communication and checkin was easy. The place was clean and very “average”. For the price it was what I should have expected. The pillows were very thin and bedding was low quality, no coffee filters for the machine (which they later brought after I bought some at the grocery store), and the place felt a bit dated. All that said, it was fine for what we needed and I would stay there again. ##### Steve W.
