Check in was terrible. There was no desk attendant and there was only a phone number to talk to an employee. It took over an hour fpr someone to show up. The rooms were satisfactory but the balcony was dirty. The location is amazing. This hotel is a great find for budget conscious.

The property itself was beautiful. I loved the decor. Only downside was the designated parking spots they have, not enough but they do give you and option to park at their own property across the street if need be.

Property is within walking distance to the beach. We took a stroll at 830pm and the whole area feels very safe. A lot of great places to eat within just a few minutes walking. Property has great views of the ocean and pier. The rooms and Property feel like a "classy vintage". We would stay at this Property again. It's a great place.

Previous reviews had me worried but was the opposite. Fast check in. Beds were just fine. View was great from the balcony. The antiques were a plus to look at. The vibe was excellent. This is not a Hilton so don’t compare. Will come again.

This place deserves an 8.4. I can’t believe the people who pick at the little things. It’s not a Hyatt regency, it’s more like a really cool Italian villa. It’s really nice and cool place to stay. So what if there’s no hair dryer? It has a fridge AND a micro in the room. It’s old style but so cool and well kept, though imperfect. And it’s close to the pier, the beach, and in a great area. Really nice neighborhood. Cheaper than any other place nearby, it’s worth the price!
