Being right next to the ocean with a great view is this hotels biggest asset. Being built in the 1970's, it's showing it's age in some areas. The carpet, inside the rooms and outdoors, is old, as is the furnishings inside. The $25/day resort gives you free parking, access to bikes, weekday yoga at 7am, prepackaged danish or muffins(Otis Spunkmeyer brand), yogurt and cereal and milk, but no juice or coffee. You can make coffee in your room yourself, but there needs to be coffee down in the breakfast room. I wouldn't call this a traditional continental breakfast as I've experienced elsewhere, and after the first try, we skipped it. We usually went over to a nearby bakery, deli (Waipouli Deli has great breakfast, and we were the only tourist there), or Starbucks. The water bottle and water dispenser is nice, however, check your water by holding it up to the light as we saw lots of small white cloudy particles floating in the water so we stopped drinking it. The swimming pool is nice, but the absence of a hot tub is a drawback. If you're considering this hotel it's main attraction is the price(add the $25 day fee), then the central location, and being right on the ocean.
