This was one of the nicest hotels I've stayed at in a very long time. Everything was clean and the room was very quiet! I could lay down and relax in this room and feel safe. It was such a restful stay here! I loved the location around the hotel. I could walk to the pier and watch the surfers. I enjoyed walking around and window shopping in the area. Those aspects of the hotel were really nice. I had breakfast before sunrise at a local cafe and listened to the surfers plan their days. I loved the decor around the hotel as well. They had incredible pictures of surfing and waves that spanned decades. It was worth stopping and looking at the pictures throughout the day. The staff was all very friendly and helpful. I'll try to stay here again the next time I'm in town.
