The hotel was very nice and quiet. Only issue was the Tv, it would keep randomly turning off. We did have the staff come and look at it and it work for a bit then starting turning off again so we just dealt with it.

We loved the peaceful and quiet area this hotel is located in. The boardwalk that goes out to the beach was beautiful and an easy walk. The only issue was the WiFi was very spotty, if able to connect at all. We loved it overall and look forward to our next stay!
