Why People Love It
- Suites with full kitchens feel like apartments, not hotel rooms
- Walking distance to Coastal Grand Mall and solid dining options
- Free hot breakfast and Wednesday evening socials add serious value
Quick Take: A pristine, practical logistics hub that trades ocean views for square footage and airport proximity.
Reviewed by @Cbadboybill: I stayed here for a work trip and having a full kitchen was a lifesaver. I could cook real meals instead of ordering takeout every night. The separate living area made it feel like a real apartment, not just a hotel room. Highly recommend for longer stays!
