Atlantic House

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel experience overall was great, friendly staff. The only things I noticed was the deadbolt for the room was not aligned to the door, meaning it couldnt be used. Not a big deal, but just seems like a security concern more than anything. They have a soda machine outside and half the products were out or stock. Also the door for our bathroom was so mis-aligned the door would bot close. Outside of this, the rest of the experience was fine. And my wife and I enjoyed how close this was to the beach."
