Room was very clean. Which was a good thing. They never came to clean our room. We checked in on Friday. Sunday afternoon I reported to the front desk that no one had come to clean our room. And that the do not disturb sign was NOT on the on the front of the door. They ask if it was. ( Knot Today) is the sign. They offered to send someone later and I told them no. We had already started to pack up to leave on Monday. Parking is not good also. Over all it was not bad but not great!

Pros: room was clean and housekeeping was great. Good location, close to local eateries, stores and beach. Continental breakfast was ok, not great. Cons: door stuck, didn’t open or close well. Furniture was lacking, no couch or comfy chairs. U basically have to sit on bed. No place to lay out clothes.
