The location was amazing. The staff were courteous and helpful. I especially appreciated that the hotel provided beach chairs . I used valet parking right outside the hotel.
The daily breakfast was a disappointment. It lacked imagination. The elevator service was terrible. The main elevator was broken for the majority of my stay.

the location is excellent, right across from the beach. the front desk staff was very helpful (especially lily).
my room was next to the kitchen, so there was kitchen noise, competing with the restaurant music. my window faced a wall and steps to the pool, so i could not see the sky.

The location is unbeatable. I walked everywhere. The complimentary beach chairs and towels were a fantastic perk. I was able to explore the area using the hotel's free one-hour bike rental (a great way to see more of the surroundings). The staff stored my luggage securely upon early arrival.
The breakfast options were a bit limited.
