    spacious room
    comfortable bed
    quirky decor
    tiny bathroom
    no a/c

    The room was pretty spacious and the bed was comfortable. The decor felt quirky, which I liked. However, the bathroom was super tiny, no space for my stuff, and it could definitely use some updates. No A/C made it tough to sleep during the night, even with the fans working. Overall, it was decent but had some quirks that could be improved.

    spacious rooms
    charming vibes
    tiny bathroom

    Charming vibes and spacious rooms made my stay delightful! The location was a beach lover's dream, quiet yet close to everything. Loved the comfy bed—definitely a highlight!

    However, thin walls meant I got an unexpected concert from the lobby. And the bathroom? Let’s just say it was a cozy one-person spa, minus the luxury!

    homemade ice cream
    friendly staff
    prime location
    cramped bathroom
    noise disturbance

    The homemade ice cream at the nearby cafes is a must-try, and the beach vibes are unmatched! The location is primo—just a hop to the boardwalk and Third Street Promenade. Plus, the staff is super friendly!

    The bathroom was a tad cramped—seriously, where are the shelves for toiletries? And the noise from the neighboring rooms was a bit much, especially at early hours!

    complimentary bikes
    beautiful gardens
    old elevator

    We had a lovely stay and enjoyed complimentary bikes to explore the nearby beach. plus, our upgraded penthouse room had an awesome view. The massage options and beautiful gardens were super relaxing after a day of activities. The only downside was the old elevator, which was a bit tricky with our luggage, but the staff were always around to help. 😊

    beautiful decor
    spacious rooms
    lack of dining options

    We enjoyed our stay with two couples, and the service was outstanding! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome, and the beautiful decor really took us back in time. The spacious rooms were comfortable and tastefully done.

    My kids wished there were more evening dining options available.

    spacious apartments
    friendly staff
    lack of storage

    Had an amazing time with friends! We loved exploring the 3rd Street Promenade and took a nice stroll to the iconic Pier. The rooms felt like spacious apartments, making our stay super comfortable. Just a heads up, parking can be tricky, but the staff helped us out with a pass.

    One downside was the lack of drawers or shelves in our room, which made unpacking a hassle. Living out of a suitcase wasn't ideal.
