Dissatisfied
Pros:

It was by the ocean and the base

Cons:

When we got to the hotel we had to have the cleaning lady come and clean the bathroom because it had shit on the toilet. Hotel was falling apart floor was lifting walls in bathroom disintegrating furniture had spring sticking out. My husband got poked by springs in the bed. Woke up three out of the four nights to the neighbor screaming and fighting
