The room included a bath and separate toilet suite.
The parking situation was annoying. They charged a fee even though there was a huge, empty parking lot.

inflexible receptionist unhelpful attitude
The staff was attentive. The outdoor pool offered superb ocean views and warm water.
The front desk receptionist seemed inflexible during check-in. She did not offer alternatives when I asked. She also did not mention the complimentary charging for electric vehicles, instead mentioning a charge if I drove onto the hotel (I found this disappointing).
