This hotel is located almost literally on the beach. From front door to beach is maybe 100 yards, hotel sits on a wide road way, with a walking park / pathway down the center of the street. At nite it turns into an amateur hour, singers, dancers, entertainment and great, great FOOD ,, it's close to good shopping, transportation and places to see. If there is a downside, it would be front desk staffing, a bit odd not having all nite staff, but no worries, only slight ( and I mean slight ) issue was not having an english speaking desk clerk, but we made it thru. Overall, a great hotel, location ,,, oh a very nice coffee shop on the ground floor by entrance ,,, this street knows how to party at nite ,,bring your hungries when you come. Should we return, will likely give this place a second look,
