The hotel has an exceptional location right on the beach, making it easy to enjoy the ocean views. My room was not up to par with cleanliness as I found it dusty and issues like mold in the shower. The service had its moments of being friendly, but housekeeping left much to be desired as towels weren't replenished as needed. Overall, while the beach access is fantastic, the room conditions and service quality are concerning.
