From 1am to 5am the room next to us was screaming slapping each other and hitting the wall. Not sure what they were doing but we had no sleep. I’m requesting a refund. Who ever was in the room was partying very disrespectful and disturbing

The staff was really nice and very helpful. The room was clean but the bathroom was very and needs some work. I loved the location but the parking was a nightmare. I really liked the hotel and it was just our bathroom that was not the best. I had a room with a view of the ocean waking up the the waves crashing was great! All the other rooms were really nice my son and his bride and a jacuzzi tube the room was beautiful. Parking is limited and if you have a big car you shouldn’t move it once you are there smaller cars have a better shot of having parking anytime.
