Very nice except our room was next to the fitness center which also served as a gathering place with tables and chairs. A large group partied very loud there until about midnight. Would not take Room 222 again.

At check in there was 2 people at the front and we were behind 2 other people and only one of the workers checked everyone in. I feel the other worker should have helped at at busy time. Also the exercise equipment need fixed most of it is not in good shape and I don't feel that I should have to put in my email to use some of the equipment. As this one is on me I should have check the free breakfast I thought it would have been a continental breakfast there is really not a good space I. The rooms for eating and also on me it would of been nice for a pool and shuttle.

A very nice place to stay
Stayed just one night to drop someone off at airport early in the morning. Very welcoming front desk staff, room super clean, beds extremely comfortable. A view of the water that can't be beat either.

Checks all the boxes +
This place was everything I was hoping for. Beautiful location, amazing beach front, simple clean rooms, easy parking, even breakfast delivered to our door. I don't like paying for extras I don't use, so the value for experience was perfection.
