ocean views beach location free parking breakfast cafe
The room offered lovely ocean views. I watched the sunrise from the balcony. The location is directly across from the beach. It allowed for easy walks. Free parking on site was convenient. A wonderful breakfast cafe next door made mornings easy.
The bathroom fan did not function, so shaving was difficult in the morning. This was a minor inconvenience.
