Noisy & Sleepless!

Bring a super plush mattress topper bc the King Size Bed feels like you are sleeping on concrete! Don’t forget earplugs bc the AC unit roars outside the bedroom window. The ceiling fan is super loose and it clank clank clanks too! There is zero insulation between the floors and you hear every step, chair scrape and door open right above. It truly sounded like they were bowling upstairs last night! Never mind the old uncomfy couch and old confusing shower faucet those were minor issues in comparison! Only stay here if you cannot find another pet friendly option.

Overall, the location was clean and staff was very friendly. It was a very short walk to the beach which was nice for a early morning walk, or short trip to the jetty to fish.

The property was in a great place. Everything was clean. The beds were horrible. The main bed had no support and felt like it was way worn out. It was very uncomfortable. I suggest getting a new matress. The pull out bed was even worse. It felt like you were laying on steel bars. We didn't sleep much. The steps were not very handicap actceptable.

Enjoyable Yearly Visit

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My wife and I enjoy this location. We have fun visiting the beaches. This is the first time there was some confusion and delay at check-in. I knew there was a problem when the first words from the desk clerk at check-in was "unfortunately your room hasn't been checked." We had to wait outside the room. Did not get offered to wait in office area with cool AC. Otherwise the room was great.
