Property really needs to be updated. It’s hard to have one key for the room when you may be doing things separately. The location is ideal as it is right on the water and easy to walk to places.

Excellent experience. Did not like that there were stairs in the hallway to rooms as this made it difficult to move large suitcases to room and back to lobby.
