We absolutely enjoyed the view from our room. The room was very clean. The beds definitely need updated. Aside from the beds, everything was of great quality and the staff was excellent.

Staff was very nice. Check-in was easy & quick. I only gave 3 stars for property condition and facilities because there was construction and a HUGE crane right outside of my room(definitely took away from my ocean view). But the property was otherwise great! I would recommend.

Their isn't a microwave in the room and the dresser cabinet had broken hinges. The bathroom sink was leaking a little bit from the bottom but nothing a towel in the floor couldn't handle. Staff was very pleasant and room was clean.
