Location

Cons:

Saturday partying, police blocked the roads due to the crowds of people. Could not get to the hotel until police finally let us through. There was a shooting a few blocks away shortly after we got to the hotel.

Not worth the value
Pros:

I like the location of the hotel being on the beach.

Cons:

Room location (107) on bottom floor was very noisy in the evening. I would never want to stay in that room again, especially for that price. The view from room is terrible when you think you are getting a view from higher up and this is at ground view. Asked for double beds, was given a king. There was no parking available except in the overflow which was blocked off due to the street being closed for a shooting that had happened.
