Well, here's the long-awaited review of La Qunita on 14th street. First and foremost, our overall stay here was without a doubt very pleasant, due largely to the awesome staff! I would recommend this hotel to friends in a heartbeat. The staff from the parking-lot cleaning porter to the managers on duty went above and beyond to smile, say hello and just be polite in general. The house-keeping staff were always laughing, asking how we were, etc. It's no secret we had car issues this last visit, and had to stay an extra day and had a very late check out. This was arranged by staff without any issue whatsoever and they even adjusted our overall rate so we didn't end up paying an arm and leg for that extra time. After I made my reservations I had read reviews on several different websites, they were not good reviews. Honestly I do not know what happened to those poor travelers but they should give it another shot. The newly renovated rooms are bright, comfortbale, larger then most and were spotless. There were a few minor disappointments. The breakfast  was very limited, bagels, two kinds of cereal, plain oatmeal (we found no milk the first two mornings) and make 'em yourself waffles, which were very good. Coffee, tea and orange juice. It says the breakfast bar is open 7-10, however this is only on the weekends, it closes at 9:00 during the week and when we arrive (literally) at 9:05 (thinking we had til 10:00) it was packed up. All that said, we didn't come to the beach for breakfast and it does have a Denny's in the parking lot, so.... Not a huge problem. On the irritating side was the room lock/cards that had to be "re-magnitized" EVERY TIME you wanted to get back into the room. The hotel was well-aware of this problem and was working on it. The beach by the hotel is nothing but rocks, and that's during low tide, after high tide there was seaweed hanging off the rails 4 steps up the access port. A VERY short walk west will give some sand and beach area. The hotel is advertised as near Stewart beach, it isn't, no hotels are since the sandpiper hasn't re-opened.

All and all a very nice experience and a quite a bargain for travelers cost-wise, nice large family pool and friendly, friendly, friendly!
