- The hot breakfast (which I didn't know it was included in mine) was awesome. They had egg-based meal, cereals, oatmeal, yogurt, fruit, bread, orange juice, and more (and yes, everything was hot and delicious) - Parking (self-covered) will be just $10, which I think is a really reasonable price. - The place is quiet and safe. In front of the place there are two gas stations; both walkable. I arrived at the hotel late and went there like 10PM but never felt unsafe. - The staffs were extremely...

Our room was excellent. Very clean and modern. The TV was good, bed was good, The K-cup coffee maker was good, but the coffee provided was terrible. Bring your own k-cups or get it from the on-site cafe which has good coffee and pastries. Parking can be difficult on busy nights. The location is great. We couldn't get down to the beach directly from the hotel, but we walked into town and found a great place to get on the beach or watch the surfers. Had a very nice lunch at Harry's sitting outside...

As every parent knows, traveling with young children isn’t easy. Finding a reliable place to stay with child-friendly amenities is among the most significant obstacles. This hotel did everything it could to provide a safe environment and keep the kids occupied. In addition, they offered excellent breakfast free of charge. We spent one day in Lego land, on a nearby beach, and at Safari Park. My 6-year-old and I had a blast for 3 days and the best Thanksgiving holiday!! Many modern healthy eating...
