I had a beautiful room with a stunning view of the ocean, which made my stay special. However, my experience was dampened by noise issues from other guests and a lack of proper follow-up on complaints. The dining at the restaurant was disappointing as well, which was a letdown considering the overall expectations. Despite these issues, the hotel's location and amenities had good potential.

My recent stay at The Cliffs Hotel was a mixed experience. While the views were exceptional and the ocean-side location is hard to beat, I encountered some major issues with service that really put a damper on my stay. The check-in experience was quite frustrating, and I felt more could be done regarding communication and attentiveness to guest needs.
