wonderful stay near turtle beach
helpful staff great location lovely pool
the staff were helpful with every request i placed. the hotel was near the beach and many restaurants. i found the breakfast and pool to be quite lovely.
i arrived and was given a room near the highway. the room had thin walls and windows. i found it difficult to sleep because of the constant road noise.
