Too hot

The room didn’t have AC or a fan. The room is in direct sunlight and was very hot. The patio door didn’t have a screen door so flies were coming in. I couldn’t shut the door because it was so hot. No elevator. The great thing about the room was the rain shower. I won’t be staying there in warmer months again.

Clean rooms, updated bathroom, wonderful view!

First, the things we didn't care for. The hair dryer had a very short cord and we had to bend over to use it. Almost impossible to use for the other side of the head. The toilet was so low to the floor that we thought we would fall back each time we used it. We are 6' and 5'11" so this was not fun. Additionally, a few times the toilet would just run and run; was easy to fix though. The great things were everything else. The shower was perfect for our heights (this is usually an issue anywhere else we have stayed) and we didn't have to lean back weirdly just to wash our hair. The room was VERY clean - this alone outweighs any issues we had. Cleanliness is the very top of our list when staying in hotels. No issues with parking. Perfect access to the beach. Quick access to the main highway. The views are excellent! Definitely recommend staying here and we will definitely stay again.

The property was clean, staff was efficient, price was reasonable. My room had an ocean view with a balcony and a fireplace. It looked like the bathroom had been renovated recently with regular + rain shower. Just up the hill there were a few shops and an excellent Mexican restaurant. Other shops and restaurants and grocery shops are just a short drive. The beach is just a few steps away and if you get out for low tide there are sea stars and other creatures near the rocks (watch your step to keep the creatures safe!).

The perfect weekend retreat

The room was clean, surprisingly comfortable, and the wind blows from the north, so the wind didnt blow into the room. we were able to keep the balcony door open all night as we slept to the sounds of the ocean waves just outside our room. Very peaceful. Very romantic. My wife and i were there for our 13th wedding anniversary, and it was the perfect stay. Beautiful views. Perfect sunsets, the sounds of the ocean, and just steps away from the surf if your feeling brave enough to jump in. The staff was nice and professional. The pool was clean, recently renovated. And the hot tub was just right, with ocean views to boot. It was the perfect getaway. We will definately be back.

Ok

Bathroom has been remodeled, however the fireplace screen is extremely rusted. Bed was comfortable. Be forewarned there are no screens on the windows/balconies. As a result we constantly were swatting flies in our room and could not keep the window open at night. That was unfortunate because I paid a lot for a 3rd floor oceanfront room and could not enjoy keeping my balcony window open. Also, balconies are not private. Your neighbor and you can extend your arms and touch. Also given proximity to your neighbor, I can hear my neighbor’s entire phone call including the caller on the other line and the phone call was no even on soeaker mode.
