Disappointing

  : I liked that we had a beach front location and that it was close to our family who were staying within a block away on the beach.
  : All the noise's you heard while you tried to sleep at night! First, the noises of water running through the pipes coming from our kitchen ceiling. It appeared to be coming from the room above us, perhaps when they flushed a stool or ran water. Secondly, The sound every 10 -15 minutes of what appeared to be a large dog barking...My husband said, it wasn't a dog but noise from pipes in the walls or somewhere near our room. I'm guessing the mechanical room just outside our door. Lastly, and by far the worst, the constant beeping coming from the mechanical room. If you've every had a battery go low on the smoke detector, you know how annoying that sounds! Imagine having to listen to that all day and all night while trying to sleep. I called and reported it after the first night and the property manger was very kind and quick to call me back. They apologized and said they would get it taken care of, which they did. However, the fix didn't last and started back up the next day. I called to report it a second time and again they were quick to call me back, apologized again, and promised to get it taken care of but no one ever showed up to take care of it. Very disappointing, given the price we paid to stay. The furnishing need updated as they are worn. The patio furnishing could use a coat of paint and some new cushions. The refrigerator worked well and looks new inside but the outside had rust on the door. Those things we knew in advance and we were given a slight discount, which we appreciated. However, all the noises we had to deal with was just too much! We love Gulf Shores. It's a beautiful place to vacation. We do plan to return but unfortunately, we will not be returning to Gulf Towers.
