decent stay with minor issues

beach accesscute staffbase supportdelayed drinkwater delayservice issue
the location is very close to the beach. the staff was very cute. i used this hotel as a base, which met my needs without issues.
my drink did not arrive until after my food. the water offered for the table also didn't arrive until mid meal. i felt the service didn't match the food.
