    Everything was great! The room was clean and neat. We loved location and it was literally few steps to the beach. Free parking, very friendly and helpful staff. It was amazing place to have delicious breakfast across the street. We are satisfied and we are planning to come back! We didn't have iron in our room, but it was not a big deal.…
