Room 113 was absurdly loud - right next to the stairwell. Kids screaming and shouting and thumping as the ran up and down. Adults not giving a f*** that there are people trying to relax right on the other side of the door.

All the staff members were fantastic! However, there were glitches, partly due to Hotels.com and partly the actual computer system onsite. There is no "ocean view"; yet, it was confirmed that I would have an "ocean view". The location is a lovely walk down to East Beach, so not so bad. But, there needs to be more accurate descriptions.
