What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Great Rooftop

The rooftop bar provided a fantastic setting for our evening gathering, complete with stunning ocean views and a lively atmosphere. The cocktails were refreshing, especially the Jalapeno Margaritas that were expertly prepared. It made our celebration one to remember!

Cozy Room Amenities

I loved how cozy and well-decorated my room was, with a good beach theme. The bed was comfortable, and I enjoyed unwinding on the balcony while soaking in the sunset. It truly felt like a home away from home.

I had a stay that was a mixed bag. The location is fantastic, just a short walk to the beach, and the rooftop bar has some really great views. However, the rooms could use some upgrades and maintenance, and my interaction with the front desk left a lot to be desired. Overall, it was nice but certainly not perfect.

Rooms

5.0

The rooms had a musty feel and were located right by the highway, which was disappointing. I initially received a room that wasn't ready, and the second room was slightly better but still had issues.

Service

6.0

The front desk service was not great; I felt dismissed during check-in. However, some staff members, like Samira at the front desk and Randi at the bar, were helpful and attentive.

Location

8.0

The hotel is situated just across from the beach, making it super convenient for beach trips. However, the one-way street made getting in and out a little tricky.

Dining

6.0

I didn't try much of the dining at the hotel, as I preferred local options, but I heard mixed reviews about the breakfast.

Facilities

7.0

The rooftop bar was a highlight with its views, but the overall facilities could use some updating, especially the restrooms.

My experience at this hotel was mixed. While the ocean view from the suite was beautiful and the restaurant food was fantastic, I was disappointed with the overall state of the accommodations. The pillows needed replacing due to an unpleasant odor, and there were maintenance issues like a leaking roof in the hallway. The $35 parking fee felt a bit excessive, especially given the other inconsistencies.

My experience at this hotel was quite mixed. On one hand, the ocean view from my room was truly breathtaking, making for a lovely atmosphere. However, I faced multiple issues with the cleanliness of my room and the inadequate service, which significantly affected my overall stay. Additionally, the dining options left much to be desired. Overall, it has great potential but falls short in execution.

We had an excellent stay at this hotel, highlighted by the amazing hospitality from a staff member named Jacqueline, who truly made us feel at home. Unfortunately, our experience was marred by excessive noise from other guests and maintenance issues in the room. The location is fantastic, close to the beach, but other aspects of the stay left much to be desired.

6.0/10

My recent stay at the hotel left me feeling mixed. While the location is unbeatable, directly across from the beach, I encountered quite a few issues with my room. The staff was polite and helpful, which was the only bright spot in an otherwise disappointing experience. Overall, I wouldn’t say it was worth the price given the room issues and dining experience.

Rooms

The room was a letdown with an odor coming from the bathroom, and it was obstructed from a proper ocean view. Though it was clean when I arrived, it didn’t meet my expectations.
