My honest opinion

Beach access and view was great. Building very dated, worn and smelled old and stale. The room was surprisingly huge with a bedroom, living room with kitchen that faced the stunning ocean. The balcony was a plus. The bathroom was large and clean. The staff was very nice and accomodating. The hotel is on a popular street so the noise from unruly tourists was annoying, no fault of the hotel. Coffee in the lobby and Parking was free.
