This hotel is perfectly situated just a stroll away from the boardwalk and the beach, making it a convenient choice for a fun getaway. The rooms are modern and spacious, which I appreciated during my stay. However, the dining options left a bit to be desired, especially during breakfast. The facilities, particularly the pool, were a nice touch, but not everything was ideal for the price I paid.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, with its prime location just a stone's throw from the beach. The rooms were clean and comfortable, making my stay quite enjoyable. While the pool area was great for relaxing, I found the dining options rather limited, which was a bit disappointing. Prices were fair, but I wish Wi-Fi was included instead of being charged separately.

I had a pretty good stay at this hotel overall. The rooms were clean and spacious, which made for a comfortable experience. Being so close to the beach was a big plus as well. However, I found the pool area a bit smaller than I expected, and the dining options weren't very varied. The hotel provided great value for money, but I wish there had been a bit more diversity in the breakfast menu.

This hotel is perfectly situated right across from the beach, making it super convenient for a sun-soaked getaway. I found the rooms to be clean and modern, which added to my comfort during the stay. On the downside, the dining options weren’t as extensive as I would have liked, particularly for breakfast. The amenities are nice, but the Wi-Fi comes at an extra charge, which was a bit inconvenient.
