My stay at the hotel was wonderful! The location was perfect, just a stone's throw away from the beach and within easy reach of various restaurants. The rooms were clean and cozy, and the staff was incredibly friendly. On the downside, the dining options were a bit limited, but the pool area was a fantastic place to relax. Overall, a great value for the price, although the separate charge for Wi-Fi was a drawback.

The hotel is perfectly located, just a short walk to the boardwalk and surrounded by restaurants and shopping opportunities. The rooms are modern and clean, featuring a convenient kitchenette for preparing meals. The staff was accommodating, with one member going out of their way to grant a late check-out request. However, the dining options were a bit lacking, although there was hand-made pasta available. Overall, a great value for the price.

My stay at the hotel was amazing! The location was perfect, just steps away from the beach and surrounded by great dining options. The rooms were spotless and cozy, and the staff was incredibly welcoming. The only downside was the limited dining choices. The facilities, especially the pool area, were well-kept and enjoyable. The price was fair, but it would have been better if Wi-Fi was included.
