This hotel has a fantastic location just across from the beach, making it super convenient for beach lovers. The rooms are comfortable, but they could use some updates, and there were a few issues that interrupted my stay. The service was quite lackluster, with staff not being very proactive about fixing problems. Overall, while the location offers great value, the experience could be improved.

I had a decent stay overall, with clean rooms and a friendly staff. The location is great, just a short walk to the beach, which is a big plus. However, I found the rooms to be a bit small and not quite as clean as I would have liked. Service was generally good, though it did get a bit backed up. Dining options could definitely be improved, especially during busy times.

The hotel had a lot going for it with a prime location and friendly, attentive staff. However, my room was rather small and overlooked some construction, which wasn't ideal. The amenities were enjoyable, but the dining experience could use some improvement as it felt overpriced for what was offered.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the plus side, the location is fantastic, right across from the beach, and we even got a complimentary upgrade to a suite, which was a nice touch. However, the rooms were smaller than expected and not very clean. The service could also be improved, as we faced some issues with staff attitude. Overall, it's a great spot, but I wish the rooms and service had been better.

I had a somewhat mixed experience at this hotel. While the service was friendly and the location couldn't be better, I was disappointed with the rooms. They were not as clean or comfortable as I'd hoped, and I felt the value for what I paid wasn't quite there. The amenities were lacking, especially for a family as we missed having a microwave and a bathtub. Overall, it has great potential but needs some improvements.
