"We were only staying for the night. They were extremely flexible! Our room was ready before 4pm and they even gave us a late check-out. They had a festival the weekend before and we didn't have beach access on on our check in but that information was well communicated to us! No surprises."

"Loved the layout and location. I actually used the shareable bike one morning. All in all the only concern and I wouldn't say that we were concerned too much, was the little tiny bugs. Not sure if that's an Alabama thing or maybe pest control could be made aware."
