The hotel was clean but a little outdated. The staff was friendly, and they have onsite parking. The resort is on the waterfront so great beach access. It is also close enough and far enough away from the downtown area, about a 10 min walk.

I stayed in what they call a ‘relaxation room’. It has 2 king beds. THE MOST COMFORTABLE BEDS EVER, in a hotel. It also has a massage recliner chair. The resort was literally on the beach with a pool and hot tub there as well. It was six of us friends that stayed there with 2 rooms. We had rooms two apart. There is a little kitchenette with a small but deep fridge that holds more than you would think and a 2 burner stove top. Microwave was available upon request, they literally had it to the room before I walked back over from the lobby. We were walking distance from all the activity. There is an amusement park just minutes away walking and the pier is right next to that with plenty of restaurants, bars and shops. Great resort and location. All the staff was pleasant and friendly. I’d give it 6+ stars!

We had a very nice stay. The resort is clean and our room was comfortable. We liked that we could walk to restaurants and shopping. The one area that was troublesome was the WiFi- we were trying to work remotely and the WiFi was extremely unreliable. It was frustrating.

To be honest the reviews on google scared me a lot. However it turned to be good. Close to the beach and the restaurants. The room was good enough, we just came to sleep for the night. I feel the rooms could get an update.

Not the ritz Carlton but it did the job. Definitely outdated. If you have a room that’s “train side” expect it to be loud, even through the night but my 2.5 year old LOVED it. Very close to the beach and walkable. Close to nearby shops and restaurants

Disappointed

I will say the location was great, right in the beach as expected but it all stops there. This place is old and needs repairs, paint and to be updated. The room was clean and the beds were comfy. The bathroom was clean but cramped and the toilet was built for toddler. The pool was one the reasons I booked this hotel but it was a total disappointment. The pool was not heated, dirty and the had a shop vac filtering the water by the lame fountains. In all this hotel is not worth the money I paid and I would not go back.
