9.4/10 Exceptional! (1,010 reviews)
Great location and beautiful ocen view. I reserved a king size bed through Expedia, but arrived to a queen bed. I had to upgrade to get 2 queen beds. My boyfriend is a big guy so one queen bed was not going to cut it.The manager went out of his way to help, but I am quite unpleased about spending 400 extra dollars which I believe was due to Expedia. We had a great time aside from this extra expense.
