I really liked it if I wanted to pay a lot to only have a small room, I didn’t pay too much attention when I booked I booked the ocean front view , the rooms are small bad lighting you can open your window shades but then everyone can see inside, there is no tv in the rooms and idk it didn’t really feel like nice for the price maybe for a older couple who wants to enjoy a time with our phones or tv you know but I’m more modern day I need tv , a nice mirror and bathroom so I ended up leaving and switching hotels . But the hotel it’s self is beautiful
