Positive Reviews
positive:
Takes advantage of the ocean view
The rooms with ocean views provide spectacular scenery from the outer decks and is worth the extra price. Other guests can also enjoy the view, though, poolside as the pool and deck overlook the beach with private cabanas, sun loungers, and cocktail service. There is also private beach access just steps away.
positive:
Rooms are functional and comfortable
There are many room choices to provide great flexibility according to guest need. The larger rooms are functional for longer stays and for those traveling with a larger group. The spacious common areas also have sofa bed and some have dining areas with tables. The kitchens also provide an economical eating choice rather than eating out for each meal.
positive:
Such a great location
The hotel is situated right on the ocean, but is also close the Bay and all those options for views and recreational activities. This hotel is close to shops, restaurants, and groceries and many are within walking distance. For those who want to explore further, a nearby bus stop makes that choice available.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Hidden fees will get your goat
There are a lot of hidden fees at this hotel. Guests will pay extra for valet service and laundry service, plus be charged hefty fees for room cleaning and a resort tax. Also, the parking is very limited and once the lot is full, guests will have to find secure parking on their own, which can be quite costly.
negative:
Historic in unpleasant ways
While the historic building has been fully-restored and renovated, some parts still seem dated and older. Guests who see the luxury amenities, such as a valet, expect a modernized luxury hotel.
negative:
Some cleanliness issues
The hotel has some cleanliness issues as the rooms are not serviced daily and guests often have to request a sprucing up. Also, the common areas could do with more regular cleaning for a better presentation.
