Pros:

Beautiful hotel, close to the beach, close to bars and restaurants. Rooms are very comfortable. Luxurious bed. Lots of space in the room. Is a little on the pricey side but it's worth it if you're looking for a special getaway. Free parking garage around the corner if you're willing to walk a little bit.

Cons:

Nothing.
