We loved the hotel's stunning coastal location, which offered breathtaking views from our balcony, and it was close to great dining options. The apartment was spacious, clean, and well-equipped, making our family of four feel right at home. The parking garage beneath the building was a fantastic convenience, and the friendly staff greeted us with a lovely touch, providing fresh milk upon our arrival.
