Slightly Overpriced

Soundproofing is Not Effective
Guests complained that they were frequently able to hear the activities of occupants in other rooms, and said they were sometimes bothered by exterior traffic. Sometimes, fellow guests were so loud that staff members were alerted, so you may want to pack earplugs. .

Parking is Sometimes Scarce
There were some comments from guests about it occasionally being difficult to find parking at the hotel, because the lot is sometimes used for overflow when the beach is crowded. Fortunately, with patience, guests were usually able to find places.
