Nice location, nice staff
Pros:

The property is right across the street from the beach. It’s also in walking distance of plenty of restaurants and stores. The staff was very nice. When we checked into the first room with a view of mostly the driveway they moved us to a room with a better ocean view. The pool area is also nice

Cons:

The room was smaller than I expected. Not a lot of room to move around. Also the price of the valet was excessive especially since we parked the car and walked everywhere. Never used it one time after getting to the hotel

Excelente ubicación
Pros:

Me encantó la Ubicación
El Desayuno y la comida en general en el Hotel muy rica
Las habitaciones son cómodas, el Hotel en general me gustó,

Cons:

Desafortunadamente apareció una cucaracha patas arriba en el baño y era un piso alto, al ver todo entre comillas limpio, pues llama mucho la atención este hecho, que nos dejó bastante inconformes y con la sensación que las cosas no están bien. Un Hotel que hoy día no tenga acceso gratuito a WIFI, lo siento que no está entendiendo como se desarrolla actualmente el mundo, eso me pareció terrible y además el costo del valet parking me pareció excesivo

Incredible view, accommodating staff
Pros:

We liked the overall atmosphere of the hotel, staff, vibe. The room was spacious, beds were comfy. The view was incredible. The pool area was great and we loved the chair service at the beach.

Cons:

The restaurant was a little disheveled when we went to order food to go to our room. Just plates everywhere, breakfast buffet was still not broken down.

Excellent Location and Value
Pros:

I really enjoyed my stay here. The location is fantastic. Right across the street from the beach, with several beachfront restaurants and shops next door. It made it super convenient without needing a car to drive around.

The rooms were a good size, clean, and mine had a good oceanview. For the price, I felt like it was a good value compared to other hotels nearby. Staff was also friendly throughout my stay.

The only minor disappointment was the front desk said beach chairs were available until 5pm. However, around 3pm they came out saying they were packing up early for the day even though it was a beautiful day. The chair attendant didn’t give a reason for this other than “my boss told me to”.

Other than that, an excellent stay and would gladly return again, hopefully for longer next time.

Muchos costos de taxes, valeparking y fees escondidos.
Pros:

La ubicación.

Cons:

Te hacen una oferta de reservción muy tentadora, que termina siendo una falsedad. Hay muchos cobros escondidos y taxes varios que no se especifican durante la reservación. Terminan cobrandote hasta más de $200.00 de lo preacordado. Es abusivo!!!
