I reserved a beach view room. My room was ground level and the first view was of the parking lot (my car conveniently out front), the second view was of the highway (very noisy) and then finally the beach. It wasn't worth the extra $. Room was recently renovated, it looked good, but the quality cheap and not standing up to the wear and tear of a hotel room. Blinds were flimsy, broken and did not keep out the light. Coffee maker didn't work, VERY MINIMAL dishes in kitchenette (a wine glass would have been nice). Hosts were nice enough to help me change rooms, the second room was only incrementally better.
