We did. We enjoyed it. We checked in around noon and had to wait about 30 minutes but they delivered our keys to the rooftop bar when it was ready. They did upgrade us to an ocean view through Amex FHR. Breakfast was also good but the free breakfast did not cover the service charge which was weirdly only there for 2/3 days. There was also a restaurant charge that wasn't ours but that got taken off with no fuss. The weather was unfortunately terrible minus our last few hours. We somehow timed it during some weather event which kept it cool and rainy all day instead of the usual hot late afternoon storms. Still I'd go back for sure. It's pricey but rooms are nice. A white noise machine took out the street noise. Easy walking distance to restaurants and while we weren't out super late we didn't feel unsafe in the slightest walking in the evening.
