The area of this hotel was great. Lots of nice restaurants in the area, and the beach was very close and the gelato shop on site was amazing. The hotel itself was not the best though especially for the price. The room wasn’t ready at check in time. There were white stains on the curtains, the elevator to get to your room made a loud alarm for every floor, the walls were thin, so you could hear every other person and door closing in the hallway. Then there was music blaring until 3am right outside the window from the DJ. Wouldn’t stay here again.

Do not go by the pictures. They only took pictures of their penthouses and the pool is their penthouse pool. We chose this place because there was an infinity pool. It literally was a scratched up plexiglass box in between two buildings with no view. Very cold water and it was scummy.

Beautiful property, I love that the restaurant is connected for a late night drink or dinner. Just remember it is close to the street and you may hear music and nightlife. The public restrooms gets unkempt late night. I didn’t get a chance to look at the pool. Staff was friendly and helped with luggage and early check in. Room wasn’t ready but amenities were available!

Clean, up to date hotel. Courteous and helpful staff. Convenient to beach, shopping, restaurants, and nightlife. Was quiet inside room, which was surprising considering the nightlife. Bed was comfortable, but a little too soft for me. Love the area and would definitely stay again.

Very nice property in the Art Deco area. Great stay. I would have rated higher but one early evening, there was drilling and banging in the next room until 8 pm. No alert or notice. Very disturbing.

The property had onsite entertainment and one section of the hotel had a ice cream shop connected to it and while we where waiting for the elevator to go upstairs there was a very large roach/water bug crawling around. additionally, the bed had the bottom of it busted out of the box spring. I would not stay at this location again!
