I rated our stay 9/10 due to barking dogs. It wasn’t necessarily the property’s fault and we didn’t complain but it
Pros:

Great breakfast. Great beach location. Super friendly staff. Comfortable beds.

Cons:

The allowance of dogs is a gamble. Barking dogs are always a possibility and our stay included neighbors with dogs and it wasn’t pleasant.

First impressions.
Pros:

The breakfast was good. They attempted to resolve an issue.

Cons:

At the time of checking into the hotel they could not find my reservation through booking.com at all. I was then asked to wait while they checked in other waiting guests that came in after me. When I asked for the manager who was on call that night and she told me her name I then asked for her number as I had already spoken to her twice before coming to ensure everything was ready and handled, and she would more than likely remember that I called previously and be able to help me more efficiently as the person at the front desk had no clue what was going on. I was then given a number that was not the managers number but in fact the main hotels number. When I questioned the lady at the front desk, she stated she didn't have it, it was in a book that she would have to look for. I asked her if she could please get the direct number and provide it to me. At this time I was still having to wait as other guests continued to be checked in. The front desk finally called the manager(without looking for the said "book") and explained what was going on, the moment the manager heard her say my name she stated "I just spoke with her the other day, everything should be set for that quest" (she was on speaker phone). It was very much not, though the manager did not come in to handle the situation she did tell the front desk to upgrade my room to a beach view with easy beach access for no extra charge, as well as reimbursement of one whole night. They both did apologize for the situation. I thought the situation was resolved for the most part until I got to the room and checked out the beach view and was locked out! (Yes I had my key card) Turned out the battery was dead, as I found out when I went back to the front desk to inform her (the same woman as before). She told me she would send someone right away to change the battery.

We would definitely stay here again!
Pros:

The location was perfect and it’s a great price. It was clean and comfortable. The pool was small but never over crowded while we were there. It is a very short walk to and from the beach. We enjoyed getting lemonade at the door.

Cons:

The breakfast was just ok. The first morning was a lot better than the second. There were more choices and things my children will eat.
