The location was fantastic, nestled right along the promenade, making it so convenient to explore nearby shops and enjoy the beach. We appreciated the easy access to public transportation with a taxi rank just outside and a bus stop across the street. The added bonus of free parking just a short walk away made our visit even more enjoyable.
