Expedia should remove this property from their website. It was disgusting with ants crawling everywhere, stained bedding and I swear something ran under the bed while we were leaving in the middle of the night! Stay away!!

This property is a typical beach cottage. It could use continued upgrades. There were multiple fixtures missing light and the bed was ok. The place was good enough. The property was super loud. You can hear right through the walls and the road noise can disturb light sleepers.

Proceed with caution

The parking area was haunted, would not park in there. Heat didn’t work, top of shower leaked enormously & flooded the bathroom, beds were like concrete floors, no lighting & Internet didn’t work. Did I leave anything out? How did this place get a 7.2 rating & it wasn’t cheap.
