great stay on ocean drive
great locationrooftop pool
I loved the location directly on ocean drive! the hotel has a great terrace overlooking a green space and the beach. there were plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. Walking and biking paths are also close. the welcome drink at the neighboring hotel was a fun bonus, and i liked the rooftop pool.
it was a bit inconvenient.
