Pros: Clean, comfortable beds, nice view of sunsets and partially also the beach and water, well equipped kitchen, a good size fridge and freezer, location, easy access to the amazing PC beach. Cons: Additional $30 parking fee, ATM in the building was out of order, super tiny bathroom, quite outdated, no hair dryer, overall felt like a hospital room.- Posted: 7/16/2024
