The staff was helpful/nice. The location was perfect just a block or two off of the busy area. Shopping, restaurants great. Beach 10-15 walk, but walkable. There dog friendly , and places to walk the dog are all around. The price was good for our stay. We were down stairs, so a little noise with the stairs up and down, but it got quiet after 9 pm. All and all was fine. Enjoyable........
