Bad
Cons:

Beds were uncomfortable, smart tv wasnt connected to wifi, remote didnt work for tv, floor was dirty, walls are thin enough to hear the whole floor. Seems more like a place for people to hook up after going to the bar downstairs.

Relaxing
Pros:

They let us check in early and didn’t charge us. We stayed Sat-Sun and we were allowed to swim all day Sun too.
The staff is soooo nice. We loved the pool / hot tub. It’s right across from the beach.

Cons:

The beds were hard and not comfy to me. My husband and son were fine with them.
