Room was quite nice and staff were very responsive. However, the hotel continues to undergo major renovations and that really disrupted dining options in the hotel. Also, parking at the garage next door was very expensive—$55 a night, and that really added to our expense.

Amazingly close to the Pier, restaurants and shopping. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooms clean, well appointed and supplied. Our only negative were the beds were very uncomfortable… not great for bad backs. Otherwise 5 stars.

Modern eco-friendly hotel right on the beach!
We were thrilled with the location - only a 2-lane street across from the beach! It is ultra-modern, despite being opened in 2011. Staff are very helpful and accomodating. The 2-queen-bed room is a bit tight for opening luggage, but the bathroom is great! (Except for no towel drying racks.) The downside at the time we were there, there was no restaurant or bar due to remodeling. On-site valet underground parking is pricey. So many restaurants and bars within easy walking distance! We hope to stay there again!

Great service and staff, especially Ramon, who was especially helpful and attentive. Great pool and hot tub and lovely rooms. The only issue was the construction - which was noisy. The noise and construction workers caused limited access to the pool area and made hanging around our room / pool area less than desirable during the day.

1st it took over 15minutes for my luggage to be brought up. & The man who brought it up did not offer to show me the ins & outs of my room. That there was a luggage rack in the closet , the lights, the front door, the sliding glass door, " the qr code that allows me to order from a menu, the snacks & mini bar were not re stocked. Also im old & I want the old fashioned menu. Because I did not have that I did not order food. & last but not least I called the front desk around 646AM & asked to have someone please come up to my room to help me with luggage etc. ( I carried 1 suitcase, a duffle bag & 2 coats by myself- exhausting!
