Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Toilet was very old and had to be fixed during stay. Someone above us very noisy late at night
Buena ubicacion y limpio. Pero te cobran por el estacionamiento, si eres cliente debería cibrirlo. El desayuno era muy temprano a las 9 am cierran la cafetería

Disliked: Cleanliness
Was very close to beach, loved that. Easy to find. Plenty of parking. Big rooms .
Did not like:
No housekeeping for 5 day's. I complained twice before someone came to clean the room.
The toilet is too short, very hard to get up from
The hotel is in a prime location with lots of options for shopping, dining, and coffee within walking distance. The hotel offers breakfast and parking at a fee. The room comes with a fridge and the microwave is near the lobby. The rooms are spacious enough. The mattress on the bed is more on the firm side, but be aware of the bed frame/box. If your foot or toes slam into the edges of the frame, your soul will be frightened to the high heavens where the thunderous sound should be coming from. Overall, had a great time!
The room smelled like weed vape, the bed is facing away from the tv so in order to enjoy a show you have to sit on an uncomfortable chair or sit on the side of the bed like a weirdo. The shower did not have conditioner, so I went to the front desk and asked for some and she gave me two little bottles. Come to find out they were shampoo but my wife had already showered so I couldn’t go correct it again. So we had 4 little bottles of cheap shampoo and no conditioner and we had to watch tv out of the corner of our eyes like a chameleon. Will not stay here again.
