This hotel smells SO GOOD!! The pool wasn't available, it was under construction but it was right on the beach and the staff was awesome. The bed was a bit firm for my liking but my back felt better the next morning....go figure, lol. I will absolutely stay here again. It's in walking distance to multiple restaurants. Great location.
