8/10 Good
"Liked the location and the view of the dunes. The night desk clerk that checked us in needs to work on her customer service skills, no welcome words, no smile, no is there anything else I can help you with, no directions on where to park or where our room was located. The morning desk clerk when we checked out was delightful"
