Oceana Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good
"Our room was rather small it could use some remodeling or at least fill in the holes and some paint. Gas stove we didn't use. Refrigerator and microwave oven. A bug or two I think because it was a ground floor and flower beds close by. But the plus side is that it's so close to beach, downtown"
