Nice place but very noisy

Pros: great bed, nice upgrades in room, allowed pets

Cons: -noise from PCH was terrible, although earplugs were provided--we paid a premium to be near coast but could not have window open due to constant traffic noise -paid extra for pet, but a more accessible pet area needed to be "pet-friendly"
