Pros +
- The location on the beach and the view from my room
- View was great ,Close to the beach very clean had great time
- location
Cons -
- Yes, there were a couple of things. The elevator was not working so we had to take the stairs. And we could not even get a free cup of coffee in the morning without paying $4.50 a cup.
- It sounded like there was a 50 pound concrete ball being dropped every 10 minutes or so after 700am I asked lady at counter if there was construction. She said no. Other than that had a great time.
- breakfast expensive, charged for parking, charged for coffee
