"The hotel was really nice, and overall we had a great experience. However, I was expecting our room to be directly in front of the ocean, similar to what was shown in the photos on the website. Unfortunately, the actual room and view were different from what I expected. I just wish the photos had been a little more representative of the room we were given."
