Great location, walking distance to restaurants, beach and ocean pools. Although its an older building, the rooms are very clean and the beds are comfortable. Check in was easy and the gentleman at the front desk was lovely. The cafe downstairs is perfect for breakfast, their smoked salmon bagels are exceptional... great coffee too! Will stay again
