Great place for familes
Great stay. Perfect room for a family with the main room with queen bed and a semi separate room with bunk for the kids. Wish it wasn’t valet parking. Valet parking attendees were wonderful, it just seemed unnecessary.

What could have been.
We didn't end up staying at the hotel. Upon check-in we discovered the air conditioning in the room was not working. Maintenance was quick to arrive with a fan, but did not even attempt to fix the problem. After a visit back to the front desk, they were also quick to get us into another room. However, it was not a like kind replacement. With another visit back to the front desk and a request for a refund, they were also quick to oblige with a full refund, and we were on our way to another hotel. They were apologetic and sympathized with the situation and gave us no problems when asking for a full refund. So I will say, the customer service is outstanding, and the location is great, but I can't say much about actually staying there.

Our stay at this hotel was an absolutely delightful experience for our family. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a simple yet practical design that suited families with children. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, showing great patience and care toward our children, which made us feel truly welcome. Overall, this was an excellent choice for a family getaway, and we would definitely stay here again!

I wouldn’t stay again.
The room was run down and the heating did not work, which was needed this time of year. I was on the ground floor near the guest services which was loud until after midnight. There was also a couple screaming at each other outside the room at 4.30am. The room felt exposed as a female traveler, with the front door being close to the street and the window at the back being in the car park. The front bedroom also has a window that faces into an alley. On positive notes, the front desk for check in and check out were great. The bed was clean and valet was convenient.

2/10 Poor

Really bad, avoid.
Pool and hot tub was closed, hotel was dirty and bed/pillows were the most uncomfortable crap in the world, additionally we had a cleaner lady bang at the door at 8 am while we were trying to sleep. Avoid this place at all costs.

The pool was closed and couldn’t get to the ice machine. Walked several buildings away to get ice. Should have been cleaner in the bathroom area. Hotel was not impressive. Parking was in an alley. The fire place wasn’t working well.

2/10 Poor

Not a great experience
This hotel looks like it used to be a motel that they converted to this hotel. It's right next to the beach, which is nice, but the rooms are claustrophobic. The lighting is harsh, the sound echoes, and the beds squeak. We asked for a refund as we could not stay there. They showed us other rooms, but they were equally uncomfortable. The staff was very nice but the hotel was not.

Nice location - average accommodations
Couples trip 50th bday; reserved room with view (deluxe). When I asked why the room didn’t have a view the staff walked me out to the common patio area and said “see water view”. It was comical but super misleading. Walks are very thin, I heard the person in room next to me 5am conversation. Bathroom in lobby was so grossly dirty. Bad first impression. We made the best of it but would not recommend.
