We were in a room on the third floor with no elevator provided. My wife has been referred to a surgeon for a knee injury so walking up and down 3 flights of stairs was uncomfortable.

This was a nice room facing b the ocean. It would’ve been nice to have an elevator or have been given the option of a 1st floor room. Staff on duty only until 8pm so b they helped us out with our late arrival by leaving the key for us to get in.
