Great location that was generally quiet and well kept.
For a party of 4, the 2 bedroom feels too small. Plan accordingly.

Location and room feel was great! And staff was courteous and very attentive!
I did find the price of $320 for one night pricey.

Immaculate, close to the beach, spacious
Some street noise at times

The property has a nice location away from all the hustle and bustle but still close to Twin Lakes Beach. Although we didn't have use for the kitchen since we only stayed one night, I would imagine it would be useful for a prolonged stay.
Unfortunately, the bed was super firm and I didn't sleep as well. I felt like I was sleeping on a board. I know these 2 things are quite common these days in hotels, but I don't care for the following: no rugs at all but just faux hardwood floor, and all LED lighting. Another bummer was the fact that the light in the bathroom is rigged so that when you turn on the light, the fan also goes on, which is loud and annoying. Not sure why you can't have 2 switches.
