Pros:

Breakfast was ok as was the location

Cons:

The bathroom door should have been able to close.
Someone should have made sure the body soap was filled in the shower and there could have been two bars of soap.

Comfortable, roomy, clean. Good natural ventilation
Pros:

Room was extra large ( even with king bed) with nice chairs ( upholstered with a hassock plus two chairs with a table.) Liked that there were windows front and back plus one in the bathroom: great ventilation.

Cons:

No elevator. Should be one for the building. The hot water was just hot enough— would be better if a little hotter.

Good service
Pros:

The staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was decent and the hotel was in a good location for the event I attended. 12pm checkout time was nice.

Cons:

The bed and pillows were uncomfortable and there was no view for the room except the parking lot even though it was next to the beach.

It was a good place to get a good deal for several nights for a family memorial.
Pros:

It was a great location, some of our family had a view of the beach (albeit over the train tracks!) and people were fairly friendly.

Cons:

The pillows were very poor. I don’t know why, but most hotels have gone to these half-pillows that have no support. I think they needed to switch the mattress are pins as we felt like our heads were definitely lower than our feet. The problem may arise from the fact that people sit on the very soft bed to a lot as there was basically one chair in the room.
