10/10 Excellent
"I loved the ocean view from my room. The housekeeping staff kept everything organized and spotless. Room service was delivered when promised and set up beautifully. I loved all the breakfast choices, the restaurant staff and the beautiful setting. The manager led a tour through the historical section of the hotel. I really appreciated his comments and knowledge. "
"My sister and I really had a wonderful experience. The staff were amazing! Some of the sites, attractions and the old town were 40-45 minutes drive and sometimes longer with traffic but Ubers were easy to find and very affordable. "
