Pros:

What I liked about the hotel was the proximity to the beach and food establishments. The front desk staff was amazing. (especially Nicole) I was in need of some advice & assistance and Nicole and another woman at the front desk were super helpful. They would be one of the reasons I would recommend this place. They were phenomenal!! Thank you ladies for helping me out.

Cons:

Nothing, loved the facility.
