The hotel has two pool areas. One includes sea views. the mini bar offered a solid selection. live music in the evenings created a great ambiance (i really enjoyed the jazz sessions).
i noticed a disappointing difference between the staff's attitude toward my family compared to other guests.

This gave it a cultural center feel. The staff were accommodating and seemed to ENJOY their work. I especially appreciated the proximity to the ocean, just steps away, and a short walk to dining and entertainment.
I noticed the front desk personnel were hard to understand due to lobby noise.

homemade treatsstaff dedicationhidden gembulky furniture
This hotel is really something else. the homemade dog treats was a total plus, especially since i brought my puppy along. i also appreciated the staff dedication to knowing the hotel well and the area, they shared some cool tips. breakfast also didn't disappoint. The pizza place in the back is definitely a hidden gem!
The classic king room i stayed in felt a bit cramped. the bulky furniture made it difficult to navigate and use the space efficiently. It was tough to reach sockets because of the big lamps.
