Verified A most enjoyable stay!
Pretty much only really good things to say about our three-night stay at Ave. Clean, comfortable, and appealing room (with a distant but certainly visible ocean view - thanks John!). Great to have a fridge AND microwave in the room (alas, few hotels have in-room coffee makers anymore). The wine-and-cheese and milk-and-cookies hours were a welcome touch. Happy with the complimentary breakfast room (including pancakes and eggs (not just many hotels' "continental" pastry items)) and 24/7 coffee in the lobby. Used the indoor pool three times -- once was a bit chilly, the other two perfect! Loved the lobby chalkboard noting local discount dining options for the day. Room was cleaned daily, room temperature was always pleasant, big LG TV with many channels, comfy bed. Our room's little balcony was nice (though, this being mid-March, it was too cold or wet out to really use). Enjoyed the lobby's cozy side reading room with an actual fireplace. My wife had a massage at the spa and said it was excellent. Only quibble - we arrived in town several hours earlier than we anticipated, so in order to get a room rather than wait till afternoon check-in, we had to pay an extra $50 (worth it, honestly). On our last day, when we asked for a late check-out (1pm instead of 11am), we were granted an extra half hour but told anything later than that would be another $50. No thanks - we were fine with the half hour. However, at 11:15, a cleaner knocked on our door (despite our having the Do Not Disturb sign still on the doorknob); he'd obviously not being told we had the room till 11:30. We exited at 11:20, slightly annoyed but no biggie. Overall, would absolutely recommend and would stay here again.
