The property and area outside by the bay are nice and peaceful. The rooms could use some updates though.  The bathroom tub was dirty and felt like we were going to drop through it. The room itself was not very clean, I had to clean a bit when we checked in because there was sand on the dresser and tile floor, and the tv screem was smeared with something. We had a nice stay but would look elsewhere next time.

Great location, the first room we stayed the bathroom was not very clean, they moved us bc we wanted a bay view room. We noticed the carpet was wet near the air conditioner, we thought maybe it was just carpet cleaner, but it never went away, we left the balcony door open, in hopes that the sun would dry it up. That didn’t work, thinking it could’ve been the air conditioner. The staff was extremely friendly, and the views were amazing.
