Good visit would have been great if elevator and ice machine were working.
Pros:

Room is very nice with lovely view. Breakfast is delicious. The staff are very kind and helpful.

Cons:

The elevator was out of service for 2 days. It was difficult to carry luggage down the stairs. Fortunately a very kind employee was helping guests carry the luggage at check out. (I was in a boot with an ankle injury so it was double difficult.) The ice machine on our floor was also out of service.

Cons:

The staff was a bit unorganized with the check in process, ocean view was not very ocean view from the balcony which was disappointing
