"The room was beautiful. View of the bay beautiful. Overall it was great except when I got there the man that helped me check in was very rude. Probably because I wasn’t the same color as everyone walking in. And it says on the map that there is Starbucks coffee but there isn’t . Was actually looking forward to walking there and not having to leave the hotel ."
