Liked: Cleanliness
Really a great location by the beach and with plenty of parking. An added bonus was the smallest package that we were given to Use on the fire pits round by the side of the hotel and the free pass to the crazy Eagles next door. The beds were comfortable. The bathroom was clean. The air-conditioning was slightly noisy but overall not problematic. The service was always met with a smile.
