Had a great time minus the mass shooting that happened just up the street
Pros:

I liked that we were right on the beach and walking distance from so many things!

Cons:

Honestly, it had a really weird/bad smell pretty much everywhere we went.

Expensive for the size and felt unsafe in vicinity of hotel.
Pros:

Bed was comfortable. Staff was helpful.

Cons:

There was a cleaning rag left on the table in our room on arrival. The room was tiny, less than 200 square feet. The floor was not entirely clean...it was a bit sandy. We managed to find the last parking spot in the garage after driving around for a bit. There was a large amount of police activity on our arrival. We found out that there had been a shooting on the next block where six people had been shot. We decided not to take an evening walk after finding out this information.

Decent hotel but I was expecting a little more for the price.
Pros:

The location was great! The one bedroom ocean view was spacious.

Cons:

The fitness center was closed our entire stay. The lock did not work on our door. Some of the towels had stains on them. The jacuzzi and pool were not as warm as I would have liked.

Pros:

Location, the rooms are spacious with a full kitchen and living room and dining area. The bed was small. I would question if it was queen sized, I think it was only full sized. We laughed about it as we feared we may roll over and forget how small it is and end up on the floor, lol. Also there was a Mexican restaurant downstairs that had decent food and excellent drinks.

Cons:

It wasn’t the most modern or the most clean, but it was acceptable. My husband has stayed there before and we would return.
