Broken balcony door

All in all, this was a very family, friendly location. Our room had a microwave and a mini fridge as well as a personal Keurig. We had a king room and we’re pleasantly surprised to have a pullout sleeper couch as well. The biggest downside was that we paid for the extra for an oceanfront view, but our balcony door was broken and stuck closed. It’s a huge disappointment. Normally after we get our toddler to bed, we sit on the balcony and enjoy each other‘s company for a little bit, so we don’t wake him up. But tbh at option was taken from us.

We went there early and I just wanted to ask if this is right hotel but this lady is rude! I wished she would answer me in polite manner but she 100 rude! She should not be in the front desk but the lady with a long hair she is wonderful . Overall our stay is wonderful because of the view. And the exhaust fan and HVAC is noisy it’s need to fix

Hidden Gem!

A hidden gem! Older hotel, however, the higher floors offer great ocean views. The breakfast buffet was great, however, there were no available trays. Staff are super friendly and willing to answer any questions. Will stay at this location again.
