United States, November 2023

9.0/10

I had an amazing stay at the hotel. The rooms were newly remodeled with a full kitchen and a king bed, plus breathtaking views of the water. The service was exceptional with friendly staff members assisting me every step of the way. The location was perfect, surrounded by numerous top-notch restaurants and easy access to various activities. However, the dining options were limited, and the facilities could be more diverse to enhance the overall experience.

The hotel's location couldn't have been better! Surrounded by more than 50 amazing restaurants within a 10-minute walk, and steps away from the beach, it was truly a traveler's paradise.

Dining

While the dining experience was good with freshly prepared salads at Lee's Roadside grill, I wish there were more inclusive options to cater to different tastes.

The hotel I stayed at had a lovely location right on the beach and near some great restaurants. The rooms were simple with modern appliances and a bathroom, but unfortunately, they only had views of a hallway. The service was top-notch from check-in to check-out, especially with the friendly American staff members. The dining options were not included in the price, but there were plenty of nearby restaurants to try out. Overall, it offered good value for money considering the amenities provided.
