Linens on the trundle bed were SOILED! We also had ants in the room, and the plumbing had some issues.
Also, coffee and tea area only available in the lobby from 7:30am - 4pm. We had the read online that each room came with a coffee machine/Keurig. Since we wake up early, we had to wait a while for a morning coffee. It was inconvenient.
The main positive is that the property is in a great location, very close to the beach and village shops. The grounds are pretty. The room had a gas fireplace, which was a nice touch.
