Very good hotel, especially for being in a beachfront area. Clean, quiet after the daytime traffic stopped. Excellent complementary breakfast. The only "glitch" was when the hotel's auto-dial system called all the rooms at 11PM to notify everyone that they had to follow all the parking rules--everybody had done so, but still got the call.

I rarely leave reviews, but I have to for this one. We got a "garden" view room. What they meant by that was that we got a view of the park across the street that had homeless people in it at night. Free "breakfast". Well, we did get free food. I'm not sure that cold potato salad, green salad (no dressing), chicken skewers, lunch meat and cheese are considered breakfast (ok, I'll give into the lunch meat and cheese). At least they had bagels, toast, yogurt, fruit and cereal. But eggs would've been nice. At least it was only for 1 night
