Parking is tight, I would suggest parking in the back of the building, someone scratched my car and I couldn’t find the person who did it, the front parking lot has no cameras. The staff was nice and friendly though they speak very little English and may open the door on you if u don’t have a do not disturb sign. Air conditioning is iffy room temp fluctuates. They have a pool that was nice and wash off stations after the beach, overall it was good for the price and very close to everything.
