Perfect location, large living area, clean and comfortable!
The beds and bedding were very comfortable. I cannot say enough about what a perfect location this is-we didn’t even need the bikes because we were almost attached to the square! The family room and kitchen felt bigger than the pictures so that was a wonderful surprise. The ONLY, minor complaints would be the size of the washing machine. We could only fit 2 beach towels OR 3 shower towels in at a time. There were 8 of us beaching it everyday so I spent every night doing at least 3-4 loads of laundry. Also for the price I really would expect plenty of toilet paper, paper towels and garbage bags for our stay. There was one roll for the shared bathroom with 4 people (2 bedrooms), which was gone after 1.5 days. There was less than a full roll of paper towels. When I texted management they said they typically only provide the introductory basic amenities. They did bring more since I asked but I really would expect for there to be a full supply for our time there. I would stay here again but would just request those small amenities to be present from the start.
