Seemed short staffed

Hotel was just ok. Nice view on the beach side. Property was clean, but also lots of vacancies this time of year (end of March). Seemed short-staffed. 4 night stay and room was never cleaned or re-supplied. Continental breakfast was set selections that had to be picked the night before. Delivered to the room in a box in the morning at a selected time. No substitutions. Ended up with lots of extra garbage in the room after eating on the edge of our beds. Not really a very enjoyable breakfast. Elevator was a really long walk from the lobby. Great location, maybe a better place to stay during a busier season? Bath fan was out, mainyenance got right on it to get it fixed. Front desk was always polite.
