We checked in and the room we booked felt like a dark closet. I immediately called the front desk and asked for an upgrade. We paid the difference and were very happy with our ocean front room. I would have been very disappointed if we had to stay in the first room.

It was super cute! The front desk assistant was so nice! The only thing is the room seemed like the floors were kind of caving in. But it’s right on the beach and rustic. We loved it for our family of 4!
