Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The hotel was right in front of the boats, which was really nice, close to the beach.Had the north suite.Only thing we can improve on is to make sure we have keys to get in through the front door being on the north suite had to walk around just to get in.I don't like ringing a doorbell and having to wait on someone for them to open the door. Breakfast was nice when I came down.The only thing is, I had to pretty much ring the doorbell again.So I can have someone open it up because people inside, I understand that are very weary of anyone.Trying to come in, if it's locked. I think we can try to improve that entrance.A little better rather than having to ring for someone to open the door for us.If we have key access already, I feel like we should be able to tap and be able to have access to that hallway.

I was on a quick business trip to SB. I loved how close to the water this hotel was. The staff was consistently very friendly and attentive. The morning breakfast was just right and the person on staff did a great job keeping the bar stocked and ready to go. Would recommend.

Good sized rooms with comfortable bed and very clean. Great location, quiet and easy walking. Staff were pleasant and efficient. Breakfast is a little basic, bagels, toast, cereal, some fruit but fresh and pleasant to sit outside by the pool. I would have appreciated an espresso machine.

Disliked: Amenities
It was ok, it was a decent place to stay. Nothing spectacular. Good thing is we came late and there was someone there to give us our key. The room was a bit stuffy and the windows do not open. I would suggest at least a microwave in the room.

Everything was good for the most part! Be aware of a couple of things: 1) you can hear other people in other rooms. 2) Rooms could use more vacuuming along the edges and corners of the carpet… was not a fan of seeing years of dust along the perimeters of the carpet in the room. 3) Also was not a fan of how much mold there was in the crevices of the windows and air conditioning. Otherwise was a good stay, comfy clean bed, nice safe area. Overall 3.8/5

Checked in at the hotel for the day, moved luggage in room on the third floor. Came back after dinner and the whole place is dark. The front desk with their flashlight informed us they were not informed they will have a blackout. Ask for refund and girl said she has to inform owner. My husband took 3 flights of stairs 2x to get luggage down since I cannot do stairs. Front desk girl helped us call the neighbor hotel who had lights for transfer
