refined stay near the beach

great location broad selection
i found the location ideal, south of 5th and within walking distance to the beach and numerous bars and restaurants the staff were amazing. william provided an efficient check-in, and the bar staff proved chatty with helpful service i appreciated the happy hourwith a broad selection of drinks and snacks.
during my stay, i noted a resort fee charged nightly in addition to the room rate while i utilized the wifi and had a welcome drink, the value derived did not align with the expense. this discrepancy affected my overall assessment of the hotel value.
