8.2 Very good
Pros:The location was unbeatable! The price was affordable. Love the free breakfast!
Cons:The rooms are outdated. There's no A/C which is necessary even with the ocean breeze. The beds, pillows and mattresses are very uncomfortable. A mattress topper would solve this problem and new linens. Our bed didn't have a fitted sheet.
A
6.8 Okay
Pros:The pool and the view are amazing! We spent most of our time outside, and so we really enjoyed our stay! We also had dinner at Shoals Island Grill which was great!
Cons:The rooms could use a bit of a make-over.
