"Besides being very clean and well maintained, the property had amenities like sunscreen and bug spray in a tray by the pool, a chair and a table outside the door I presume for smoking, a larger than normal refrigerator, and also a great breakfast with boiled eggs, milk, fruit oatmeal and other stuff beyond a normal continental breakfast .

"We loved the location and the privacy at Coastal Suites. The night we stayed it was only us and 1 other couple. The room was nice and cozy but there was a faint sewage smell in the bathroom. Also, the breakfast was grab and go items that were not super fresh. English muffins had mold and something else was expired. The property sits across the street from The Cherry Hut which had great food!"
