We stood there for like 5-7 minutes before we finally just parked and went inside to check in. The front desk there were two women who were immediately snooty

Hotel's location was very convenient, with restaurants and walking paths right nearby. The staff welcomed us very warmly at check-in.

We stayed in a 4th-floor ocean view room, offering an amazing vie
