wonderful stay!

cute staff nice pool comfortable bedroom excellent staff

the staff was very cute and helpful. the pool was very nice, and i found the bedroom to be quite comfortable. the excellent staff really attended to my needs! the location was convenient, just a short walk to some restaurants, though north of the busy parts of the beach road.

i noticed the beds could have been more comfortable, though the overall experience was positive.
