This is my fourth stay at Hard Rock, and it always feels like home. I truly appreciate the thoughtfulness of offering breakfast as early as 4:30 AM for race participants, as well as the convenient bike cleaning towels and washing area. One area that could be improved is the Wi-Fi signal, which tends to be weak. Overall, though, it’s always a worthy and enjoyable stay. Desaru ironman 70.3
