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.
