Great location. Easy check-in with no contact check-in options. Room was spacious and clean.
Our room was lovely and bar staff friendly with good food. Felt let down at check-in with ambivalent staff who kept delaying our check-in to room, and for cost of room felt unwelcome. Wouldn’t stay again.

The 1st 2 days we had no issues with cleanliness. The 3rd day after housekeeping the floor was sticky amd no replacement toilet paper was left. Thankfully they were still on our floor so I asked for more.
Staff was helpful. Room was clean. Hotel was somewhat hard to find as hotel is set back from the street without directional signing to guide you to the entrance.
The rooms are great and for a reasonable price so close to the city and beaches.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Room was nice and comfortable and location was quiet in good location for where we needed to be. Service is weird - self check in on computer screen - although the receptionist have us our key. Despite the gold status bottle of wine we were supposed to be offered, we had to ask 3 times to actually receive it.
Having the bar & restaurant at the main floor was great. The hotel's driveway in and overall location, decor , quiet atmosphere & cleanliness were appreciated. The exercise equipment room is far too chilling of a temperature & oddly situated aside meeting / banquet rooms on a mezanine level. If a pool were part of this hotel I would rate it higher. If also the actual list of items were in the room's mini bar upon arrival would be less annoying than as a non user of any mini bar's amenities I surely don't wish to be charged for items which were not there ever. Further, happy hour pricing while yes beverage reached a table prior to the 6 pm pricing double up moment, were seemingly processed at full price alongside a restaurant meal when the meal tab was entered to the hotel's screen ::: Small irritating factors :: generally exceedingly pleased overall.... would surely recommend !
