"Our room was very spacious. It is not beachfront. You can see the beach from your window, but it is across the street from the beach; Behind another row of hotels. The staff were great anytime we had interaction with them. The breakfast was to be expected for any other hotel of this chain. There is plenty of parking and easy to get in and out of the hotel.
