"No complaints other than not being able to check in until the exact check-in time. I couldn’t even get a room 10 minutes early. I called prior to see if there was early check in available. I got there about an hour early and the room wasn’t ready. We took the kids to the beach to wait and I would check back every 15 or 20 minutes. At one point I stood in line wet from the beach for about 10 minutes because there was only one person at the desk only to be told it still wasn’t ready. I saw several other people getting keys so I don’t know what the problem was."
