Room was excellent and view of ocean was amazing
Pillows were uncomfortable
Restaurant food was great but garlic toast was disappointing it was focaccia bread not much garlic flavour
Should have been traditional garlic bread or not advertised as garlic bread

Overnight.
The overall stay was great! The hotel itself was a little dated on the exterior but there were many interior upgrades that made up for it. The service was excellent with stay that were engaging and sincere (rare in today’s times). At the time, the elevator had an issue so taking the stairs with octogenarian family wasn’t idle but staff were always ready to help out.
