6.8/10

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel with clean, bright rooms and a comfortable bed. The location is excellent, just a short stroll to the beach. However, I was disappointed by the breakfast options and faced some noise issues due to ongoing roof work. Overall, it's a solid choice, but there are a few areas that need improvement.

5.2/10

The hotel had its ups and downs. I found the amenities pretty great and the staff generally nice, but I encountered some serious issues with my room arrangement. The breakfast could use some serious improvement as well. Overall, it's a comfortable stay, but you might encounter some hiccups.

Rooms

5.0

The room I got was not ideal-a king bed with a green plastic mattress by the window was unexpected. I requested a room with two beds but was told there were none available.

Service

5.0

Customer service was quite lacking, as the representative seemed disinterested and unhelpful when I needed assistance with my room arrangements.

Location

8.0

The hotel is conveniently located, close to the beach and various dining options, making it easy to explore the area.

Dining

Breakfast was unfortunately disappointing, with bland eggs and a misleading pancake machine. It certainly left something to be desired.

Facilities

The amenities included a nice pool area which I appreciated, but overall the facilities could use some modernization.

5.0/10

My experience at this hotel was very mixed. While some aspects like the service were top-notch, other elements left a lot to be desired. The rooms had significant issues that need addressing, and the location wasn't as advertised regarding beach access. Overall, I had a disappointing time, especially given the amount of money I spent.

Rooms

5.0

Unfortunately, the room I stayed in smelled really bad, which ruined my experience. I had to ask for a different room, but that one wasn't any better, also carrying an unpleasant odor.

Service

5.0

The manager offered to move me to another room instead of addressing the A/C filter issue, which wasn't ideal. He eventually refunded my money, but it didn't help my situation at that moment.

Location

5.0

The hotel is misleading about its beach access. The images online suggest proximity, but I found it was a long walk or drive to get to the beach.

I had a pretty good time at the hotel during my stay. The location is excellent, just a short walk to the beach which was a huge plus. My room was comfortable and quiet, but I found the bathroom setup a bit odd. Breakfast had some tasty options, but it did get crowded. Overall, it was a nice experience, but I think the room prices felt a bit high for what you get, especially during the busy season.

9.0/10

I had an excellent experience at this hotel during my birding trip. It was clean, well-managed, and the front desk team, especially Martha and Karina, truly went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. However, the breakfast could use some improvement, particularly the sausage, which wasn't very appetizing. Overall, the comfort and quiet atmosphere made for a great stay, and I would highly recommend it.
