The hotel was in a great location for short walking distance to nice local restaurants for breakfast, lunch, or dinner but not directly in a busy commercial area. Location is the biggest plus of the hotel, as you can, also, walk to the beach but a long walk with grades. Guest rooms could benefit from some updating. Staff is present on site but limited and not always easily accessible. I was disappointed that when a little late for included breakfast in the rate, that the restaurant staff noted that they would charge for the coffee that we requested just after breakfast ended. Also, there were several minor hiccups with elevator functionality, getting locked out of room and having to go to front desk 3 times to correct it, and bed / mattress discomfort.
