My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was excellent, right on the beach and close to attractions and restaurants. The staff was a bit overzealous about our service dog, creating some tension during check-in. The room had some issues like a wobbly dining table and filthy carpeting, but it was spacious. The price for parking was steep considering the difficulty in finding a spot.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was superb, right on the beach, but the room was very small, smelly, and lacked cleanliness. The service was a mix; some staff were unfriendly while others were helpful. The dining experience was affected by limited breakfast options. Despite some drawbacks, the facilities, like the pool, were enjoyable.

The location of the hotel is great, very close to most attractions and restaurants. The room was not beachfront but was well-maintained to perfection. Despite these issues, many rooms are reported to be similar.
