Pros: Clean room, nice bathroom and close to walking trails on the beach Cons: Smaller room than expected, light all night, bed and sheets were not comfortable, noisy (could hear people’s conversation in the next room very clearly). Office/lobby very cluttered and messy, poor selection at breakfast, and no Wi-Fi or cell service.
