Great location between downtown and the beach. The room was clean and comfortable, and the bathroom looked to be remodeled. Only complaint is that the pool was dirty. We decided not to get in the water.

The only problem was the elevators and hallways were always HOT, walking in through the lobby was fine then into the elevator you go. Sweating up to floor 4 the hallways didn’t bring any relief, we kept our room super cold to bring us to a comfortable temperature.
