Peaceful week ending with a wonderful fireworks display!

Property is old school Florida. Right on the beach. Nothing too fancy. Everything neat, tidy and clean. Room was laid out. Property was very well kept.

One week stay on beach

It had a good location on the beach but the queen bed should have a much better mattress. It just had form and I had a hard time sleeping. The key for the dead bolt got stuck when trying to open the door. May need replacement also.
