The standard room with kitchen was recently upgraded and was very comfortable. The kitchen was roomy and the bathroom was quite large and great shower. The kitchen had basic utensils and cookware, however did not have a toaster or dishtowel. The beachfront location was excellent and there were so many shops, restaurants, bars etc within walking distance that our days were filled with the beach activities. Loved the stay and will come again.

I loved how close it was to the beach! The room itself was spacious, clean, and comfortable. It was easy to check in and out. The staff was very kind and friendly as well.
The only thing I did not love was having to check in at the sister property and then the pool amenities were at a third location. The parking at this location is very limited, but you are allowed to park at all of the sister locations. Now let me clarify all locations were in walking distance and it was my fault for not reading the details carefully. I just personally prefer having all amenities at the same place.

Incredible Location! Cosy little room, lovely bedding and had a fridge and cooktop. Checking staff lovely and friendly …..did I mention Location….!
Parking was tricky, the booking site did not mention that u need to go to another property for checkin, or for the pool. No bathmat or hand towels , the room was hard to darken due to lights outside and having shutters. Carpet needs a clean.

The location is right off the beach so access is great. Limited parking but we had a good parking spot. Public bathroom across the street but not a problem. Room was quiet even though there was a lot of pedestrian traffic. Property was well maintained.
The room was large enough to have more than one chair. One chair for two people was a little inconvenient.

Location and very limited parking. Small kitchenette.
Limited parking. This time of year if you moved your car it took a stroke of luck to find one on the street.

We really enjoyed how close to the water! Lots of places to get coffee, chill, and eat. WORTH IT just because of that.
Lots of Collage Kids!!!!! Lots of people walking around your windows if your on the side. Also the parking is only by luck and i tell you what. we somehow got lucky when we were there.

Location, Location!! Steps from the beach, restaurants, shops, and strand. Room was spacious with a separte living room and kitchen with refrigerator but could use an update in the furniture. Parking is available for quests which is a plus.
Update furniture in living area. A desk would have helped.

Easy check in and check out. Location of hotel and room size.
I didn’t really dislike anything. It is an older property so the rooms are little dated and if you need certain things like ice or to go to the pool you have to go to the sister hotels. But! The hotels are all walking distance so it’s not bad at all.

Everything else was great!
You have to walk 2 blocks to get your luggage to your room, with no assistance from anyone, limited to no parking for guest. No pool at location for guest. Walk 2 blocks to another hotel for pool.

Beautiful location
No where in the conformation emails or when I called to confirm the reservation did anyone mention that you have to walk 3 blocks over to the sister location to check in lugging your luggage back and forth
