8.4/10 Very Good! (1,627 reviews)
I had reserved a vip king studio that was suppose to have a jetted tub but instead had a a leaky shower that soaked the floor and almost killed me. was told i would get two bottles of water upon check in and did not. Hotel itself is cute in stature but you can tell it is old when you look at the moldy and peeling baseboards as you sit on the toilet. Staff was nice upon great. They did say in the confirmation email that they would offer to upgrade my room for free upon check in due to my vip status but did not unfortunately.. not even my water. Satisfactory stay...parking was easy a little spendy at $40 a night. But it was convenient and you could upgrade to 50 for valet but i have a manuel car so i usually dont deal with the hastles. Pick up only starbucks on the corner was great.

9.4/10 Exceptional! (1,004 reviews)
Beach views was great. We had a center room set back into the pool area. So we a great views of the immediate beach, but not up and down the coast. But it was completely fine, because the hotel is ON THE BEACH FRONT. just walk out the hotel and onto the beach to see more if you’d like

45 min drive to a tourist trap with 45 min waits to take the tours. I much preferred the zoo. Wish I had skipped it.

Prepare to walk a lot and always wear sunscreen and watch the clouds for rain. Also bring in snacks to cut costs. Military ID counts as a ticket.
