Oceanfront and fast elevators
Cons:

$39 early check in (2pm vs 4). Suppose to change towels and empty trash cans every day, did neither. Generic TV remote was the worst equipment, when you were able to find the guide, it didn't match the channel. The hole in the wall on the balcony that was a pigeon nest was interesting as well.

Worth the price.
Pros:

Rooms were comfortable. Location is perfect. Great restaurants within 5 min drive. My som enjoyed the waterside on site. Great price.

Cons:

The walls in the room are thin and sound from the pool area and adjacent rooms are easily heard. Pools close at 11pm so expect noise until then if you get an oceanfront room.
