Comfortable 2-day stay at the Volare for a wedding
Pros:

We were attending a wedding, and the location was conveniently near the wedding venue, Welcome Soiree, pier and beach trail, as well as some nice breakfast eateries.

Cons:

The location was next to the freeway, which made sleeping difficult without earplugs. Having some continental breakfast offerings would have been nice too.
