"The office closes at 10pm and doesn’t typically accommodate late arrivals. We rushed to arrive by 10:30 amd luckily he stayed open for us. The room was nice, but the furniture was very loud (slightly shifting in the dining room chair would wake up anyone sleeping) and there was mold in the bathroom. Being across the street from the beach is nice. All in all, I’d stay again but I’ll be more prepared next time. "
