The location provided easy access to sunset views and morning walks. The main road location made it convenient for walking into town. The continental breakfast room offered a beautiful spread, including an array of pastries and fresh fruit. It certainly met expectations. Parking was ample, a relief. The hotel's proximity to the water added to the allure.
The check-in system had issues. I found it somewhat frustrating.
