Excellent stay. Room was clean and spacious. Check in was seamless. Very short walk to the beach. Great views from the windows. Only negative is the walls are pretty thin. It wasn’t much of an issue for me because there were only a few people there, probably due to the weather. However, I could hear the neighbors conversations and TV pretty clearly the first night. And they weren’t being “loud.” Just think walls. But overall it was a great stay. Would stay again.
