My stay at Century Hotel had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, with easy access to the beach and nearby attractions, but the room conditions left much to be desired. While the outside of the hotel boasts classic Art Deco charm, the room itself felt outdated and uncomfortable. If you're looking for a place just to crash for a night, it might work, but I wouldn't want to linger here too long.
