Central Location and Friendly Staff
pier proximity efficient staff walkable restaurants
The hotel's proximity to the pier is ideal. A short walk allows for enjoyable strolls by the ocean, especially at sunrise or sunset. The staff was efficient and knowledgeable. I appreciated the convenience of walking to many restaurants.
The soundproofing could be better. I heard street noise.
Facilities

The hotel offers valet parking for $38.50 a day. This is convenient given parking can be challenging. Breakfast is available nearby at a café around the corner from the building. The location makes this hotel convenient.
