We’re from Australia and travelling by bicycle. The staff were welcoming and had no problem storing our bikes in a safe place. We loved the location of this hotel, close to the beach and restaurants and felt very safe walking around. The ocean mall was also connected to the hotel. The enjoyed the gym facilities and the pool area. Highly recommend!
