Fast and easy check in, but the amount that had to be held for our room was a lot higher than other hotels. Room was super clean and nice & the hotel itself was nice & clean as well. The only bummer was our “ocean view” was that could barely see the corner of the ocean if we stood in the very corner so it was kinda a letdown to pay for that.
