⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had such a wonderful stay! The staff was incredibly kind and helpful, which made our experience even better. Everything was clean and comfortable, and we really appreciated the complimentary breakfast. The waffles were honestly the highlight of my morning—so good! 😄 Thank you for such a pleasant and welcoming stay. Would definitely come back!

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was nice, clean. The staff was nice. There is no parking near the hotel and they charge $25 to park in their parking garage which is under the hotel. The ocean is a couple blocks away and was an easy walk. I had requested an ocean view and you could partially see the ocean through the houses below.
