Hotels vs condos

You can stay at LaQuinta on Back Beach Road (3 blocks from beach) for $140 a night plus tax or you can stay in a 756 sq ft condo with a balcony on the beach for about the same amount.  You're in a gated community, park at your door and sit in air-conditioning and watch the sun bathers, boats, dolphins and other beach activities.  It's your call; what are you waiting for?
