Ocean Waves

I paid a high price for an ocean view, but they put us in a 1st floor room with trees that obscured the view. They let us move to another room … again on the 1st floor. There were a lot of dogs in this hotel… I did not know this was a dog hotel or I would have never picked it. The hotel is very run down, but on a positive note, all of the staff in the hotel and restaurant were very nice and accommodating.
