    The room was perfect for a long weekend. We’ve stayed at the property a few times and it gets better every time. I could tell where the property had recently had major updates & was overall just better. We will definitely be better.

    Location was convenient, right on the beach, close to restaurants and Walmart. The condo was clean, great beach view, and there weren’t any loud disruptive neighbors.

    The condo was clean upon arrival. Has a beautiful view of the ocean. There is a flor to ceiling window along with a few othe small windows that allow for a perfect view of the ocean. Check in was easy. The bed and pillows are extremely uncomfortable. The bed sinks in badly in the middle. It really needs replaced. The couch is hard as a rock. Not something you really want to sit on to try and relax. Thankfully we did not spend much time in our room. There are no balconies outside the rooms here which was quite disappointing since we love sitting out there at night and in the mornings. They do have balcony areas around the complex on each floor with chairs but we like a bit more privacy. This condo seems to be on the more quiet end of PCB which was nice since we don't really like all the noise and craziness of people riding up and down the strip. Overall it was a nice place and we didnt have any issues while staying here.

    I found the apartment to be nice. It could use a little more cleaning but wasn’t gross. I did get in earlier ( which i appreciated) so I don’t know if effective their cleaning time. The bed was a little hard but for the money was a fantastic stay. Also, a dresser under the tv would be nice. We struggle to find a place to put our clothes up. Most of the staff was friendly. Appreciate the lady in the gift shop when I needed some first aid.
