My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. While the location is quite nice and the rooms have a cozy beach theme, I found some aspects lacking, especially regarding dining and some room features. The service was friendly, but improvements are definitely needed in some areas. Overall, it was decent but didn't quite meet my expectations.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, as it offered a nice blend of comfort and convenience. The staff, especially Jose at the reception, went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed. I appreciated the spacious room, though it fell short in fully accommodating my ADA needs. The hotel's proximity to various dining options and the beach made my stay enjoyable. However, I was disappointed by the limited dining options available during my visit and the noise from events nearby.
