8/10 Good

"I’ll start with the positive: Great location, less than 15 from the beach. Around good coffee & food spots. Happy helpful staff. Even the housekeepers smiled and said hi as I walked past (many don’t and just ignore you) breakfast buffet was really nice. Things I didnt love: the flat pillows! Those poor things had no life left. I was also next to an adjoining room (I dont love that aspect) and was awoken at 6 AM one morning to a very loud woman in that room. The parking lot is kind of weird and shared with other hotels. Navigating through it was a bit challenging. All in all - great stay and great price for where it is ;)"
