"This hotel was amazing! The location is great, walking distance to restaurants and the beach is right across the street. The room was beautiful and felt clean. The only downside to this hotel was the elevators. Our tower had two working elevators and they were constantly busy so we were left waiting 5-10 minutes each time. Sometimes we would stop on every floor each time we used the elevator which was definitely annoying. Other than that, we loved this property."
