Comfortable Stay Near the Beach

The hotel is located very close to the beach. I received an upgraded room overlooking the ocean, a nice surprise. The staff was friendly and helpful, providing tips for places in the city and transport options. Parking was also available right at the hotel, which I appreciated (making travel easier).
I noticed the rooms need updating and some maintenance, such as peeling paint over baths. I also found a room service menu from a previous guest, dated from the prior month.
