Excellent stay!!!

beach location attentive staff thoughtful gesture
The hotel location was AMAZING, right on the beach and a short walk to nearby restaurants. The staff worked hard to ensure I had a WONDERFUL stay. I appreciated the thoughtful gestures, such as the cute drink and the turndown service. The bed was very comfortable, and so was the room.
The room size was smaller than I expected for the price I paid.
