some issues
heavy doors slamming noise
the heater didnt work which was real annoying, they suggested i use a bathrobe instead which is hardly a solution. the doors are so heavy. every time someone shut them, it reminded me of the room shook. plus the staff kept going in and out of a room, slamming the door. it really was loud.

pleasant stay near the coast
clean room free cookies restaurant discounts
my room was really clean and i liked the free cookies in the lobby. staff gave some restaurant suggestions and these restaurants had discounts. it was good to have ample parking, and the outdoor fire pit was amazing, it have four sides with space for three people each.
the heater didn't worked in the room and i needed wear a bathrobe instead. the doors were heavy, and when others closed them, it shook the whole room. it was a quite noisy.

comfortable bedding water filter renewable water bottles
This is a wonderful place. The rooms have space. They were also super clean. The bedding is super comfortable. I especially liked the free water filter system on site. The hotel now provides renewable water bottles.
There was no air conditioning. The room got too hot during the day. This made afternoon naps difficult.
