You will pay for every service at the hotel, including parking in their lot, which costs $25 a night. The location is great, but there are other locations at the exact cost and with more excellent service.

I enjoy that most if not all rooms have a full or partial ocean view. Everything down town is easy walking distance, and you can walk along the beach on a paved walkway to the pier. Direct beach access is also very appreciated, and makes it easy to go out and relax.
