Entry door rusted an hard to close/open. It was showing a lot of corrosion due to salty environment.
Breakfast ample but so/so. $15 pp not bad I guess, if you bring a cruise ship appetite.

Bathroom issues
We shared bathroom with another family with small children who were not trained in proper bathroom etiquette.Pee and wet towels on the floor. Adults not much better...bottle of Gatorade left in shower, along with small plastic bags with leftover shampoo / conditioner. Pretty disgusting.

Logan was great. 1661 allowed us to store our luggage as we waited for our room. Logan helped us check in a little early once our room was ready.
Area was beautiful.
10/10 would recommend.
