The hotel boasts a prime location, just across the road from East Beach. The views are truly breathtaking! The service was exceptionally attentive and thoughtful, and valet parking is available. Just a heads-up: while valet parking is charged, you can also opt for free street parking nearby.

I was completely misled by the Hyatt Centric branding; this hotel absolutely does not live up to Hyatt's usual standards. It's barely a three-star property. The corridors leading to the guest rooms were excessively long, and the carpets were quite dirty, emitting a stale, old smell.
The parking fee was an exorbitant $48 per night. There was absolutely no need for valet parking, but it was a mandatory charge with no other options available.
Our room booking explicitly included breakfast, but when we went for it, we were informed the breakfast restaurant was closed and that we would have to pay for it ourselves. How is this even acceptable?! We were then told we could order breakfast at the hotel restaurant, but only a $48 credit would be applied, and we'd have to cover the difference. Realistically, $48 is far from sufficient for ordering breakfast from the menu. Our booking confirmation clearly stated breakfast was $25 per person, and since there were three of us, after arguing extensively with the front desk, they eventually agreed to credit $75. At checkout, they promised the final bill would be emailed to me, but when I received it, only $48 had been deducted. I am utterly speechless! This is my first experience with such a dishonest and unreliable hotel in the United States.

The parking at $40 a night plus tax is too high, but other than that it was a lovely stay. Pool and hot tub were great and a nice relaxing atmosphere by the fires they light at night.

Hotel feels a little dated and the location was quite far from town. We also couldn't get Hyatt points because we booked through Trip.

The hotel room facilities are aging, the service attitude is bad, the hotel room is small, the sound insulation is poor, and the price/performance ratio is very poor.

The room is small. The beautiful environment depends on the natural scenery and not the hotel environment. The front desk staff has an arrogant attitude towards Asians. The parking fee of US$40 per day is very unreasonable in a small town. There is no need for valet parking like a Motel in the parking lot in front of the room. They force the guests to keep their car keys in order to ask for tips. It's actually owned by Hyatt, so Hyatt deducted big points.
