I ended getting a few hand towels, instead of bath towels.

Pros (+) The room and bathroom was large and spacious. Beds were comfortable. The pool was open until 10 p.m. Walking distance to the boardwalk.
Cons (-) Towels were dirty. Wouldn't clean our room. Had to ask for clean towels after 3 days. No a/c in our room. The FREE WIFI never worked in our room. Said they would check it and never did. Some staff members were not friendly. The breakfast could use some pastries. Not everyone likes waffles.
