Liked:Super disjointed staff. They gave our room away and then we had to wait over two hours to get checked in. Window in the room was broken, the bed frame had pieces sticking out of it. The bed itself was horribly uncomfortable. I asked the staff if there was anything they could do to compensate for the wait and they said no but they wish they could. Pretty bad experience especially since it was unbelievably expensive.

Liked:Location was nice and am front desk did their best to accommodate stay as they handled at least the 2 properties from 4, lacked proper staffing . The building was older , outdated and damaged furnishings , some rooms lacked coffee maker and hair dryers ,also saw dust bunnies under beds . Pool was in another building across street , not convenient. For the amount they charged not worth it , if it wasn’t for their late cancellation policy I would have stayed at a nice beach front resort for what they charged. Ridiculous. Initials T.R. Who self identified as manager was very unprofessional , raised her voice and was condescending prior to check in when I called to ask about late cancellation process and addressed my concerns .
