Art deco delight

It was an art deco delight. There's nothing extra about the decor, but I would call it well-appointed. It's all well designed and exactly what I needed it to be. The rainfall shower was a pleasant surprise. The staff were excellent to me. The way the buildings connect is a little quirky, but no big deal. Tiny pool but perfect for my needs. Only 3 working chairs were available. You can see the ocean through the trees. I would stay again!
