The location of this hotel was unbeatable. It was so close to so many amazing restaurants, a 3 minute walk from the beach, and close to everything convenient I could need. The breakfast I purchased for the mornings was worth every penny, it was unbelievably convenient, and also very tasty. The rooftop pool was such a nice touch, super safe, clean, and refreshing. I had such an amazing experience and I would recommend this location for any girlfriend group for an affordable, and worthwhile experience.

We had 2 rooms for a party of 7. And they were able to accommodate 2 rooms closed to each other. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Location and price were amazing! Front desk was very helpful and friendly. The beach right across from us. The pool at the sister property was easily accessible. The only small issue I had was the AC being directly next to the bed but we dealt with just fine. We would definitely stay there again.

Room is very small. Those pictures online do not match what we saw. It was a clean place and the bed was comfortable and spacious with lots of pillows. It is located across the street from the beach. Many fun and accessible restaurants within walking distance. Breakfast and pool are located in another hotel ( sister hotel) located behind this one, which is accessed by walking through a hallway between buildings.
