The location was awesome, walking distance from several top rated restaurants/coffee shops and right on the beach! The staff was very friendly, and the accommodations were clean. As someone with young kids, we also enjoyed the sand toys, chairs and towels that were available for use. The hotel walls are fairly thin, so expect to hear some noise from outside and neighbors. It wasn’t a big deal for us since we were up early, but if that’s important I’d consider a top floor. Parking is as you would expect in a busy city, but we were able to find city parking nearby during our stay. We will be back!

Great location, close to everything. Simple, but very comfortable room. Loved that they had beach towels, umbrellas, boogie boards to borrow. Front desk was very kind to us, and in the interactions I saw with others.There were a few chairs and a table on the patio, and it was fabulous just sitting there and watching the waves and all of the people on the boardwalk. Would definitely stay here again.

Spacious clean room! The location cannot be beat, close to the beach, pier, tons of dining options, and sea world. Loved that the hotel had free beach chairs, toys and towels to use. Esmeralda at the front desk was amazing! We were are a party of seven and pretty needy, she went above and beyond for us and really made our stay! We plan to stay here again:)

Our initial room on tge 2nd floor had an amazing ocean view, but was too small. We kept banging our shins on the platform bed trying to across the bathroom. The bathroom sink had no counter space. We moved to the 1st level which was much larger and more comfortable, however only a couple sidelight windows and no view. Of note, there is no microwave, ice or bottled water. Housekeeping was not great; at most they dropped clean towels on the bed, took the soiled towels and emptied the trash. On a positive note, the rooms are clean and the location is incredible! Everything is within walking distance, including the ocean, restaurants, grocery store, CVS and public transportation. For a few dollars, you can get to Old Town, the zoo, downtown, Seaport Village, etc. The lobby staff are very accomodating and have lots of complimentary items to borrow (i.e. beach chairs, umbrellas, towels, board games, sunglasses and more!) Overall, we were pleased with our stay.
