Art Ovation Hotel, Autograph Collection
Everyone was really friendly and helpful. It is a beautiful property. The rooms are nice and art everywhere is so cool. Only one improvement would be stronger coffee as it was super weak and bland but expensive!

Not what I expected, smallish motel like. But nice and clean rooms with good ac and nice kitchenette. Small but cozy little pool. Beach very close. Is good for the price tbh.
