We had a great visit in a King Suite for a long weekend. Room was great - and everything clean. Continental breakfast was very limited / adequate, but there were breakfast sandwiches that you wouldn't normally see, if you are so inclined. Cannot beat the location or the view. Lots of great restaurants very close nearby as well as walking paths. Close to the airport which made getting in and out great. We would definitely stay there again.

Rooms were decent. Quiet room and hallways. I was thankful because I wa so tired and needed rest. Beautiful ocean view. Bed and pillows were comfortable. There were some stains on the carpet - maybe pet stains - but minor and thankful they allowed my small dog.
