The Surfbreak Hotel

The Surfbreak Hotel

8/10 Good
"I liked the large space in the room. It was in a good spot with a donut shop across the street. The beach was close but not walking distance for us. The shower was great. They have streaming tv, but not cable. The staff were very friendly and helpful if needed. I liked the terrace where I can sit a relax. (There is traffic on the street below, but that didn't bother me.) The amenities were useful. I didn't like the restaurant across the street, but we only tried it once. Overall, it was very comfortable, and I wouldn't mind staying there again."
