4.0 star property
7.6 out of 10, Good, (134)
"This hotel was great for a short stay. The hotel itself lacks a 4star luxury feeling, but it has more of a small boutique hotel feel. It's also a great location. It's a walkable distance to the boardwalk/ocean front, which was nice. At night, the area was lively and safe. We walked around and even went to a few shops then came back and had a specialty coffee beverage at the hotel restaurant. If you choose to sit outside when you dine, the view is beautiful. Also, we received SPA treatment...

"This was an amazing stay at this hotel. This is a boutique hotel with excellent rooms individually decorated in European style. The hotel itself has a classical french Vintage touch. Grand room allotted to me was was big enough in size. Breakfast is Ala-Carte but it is not a problem who do not want a big buffet type of spread that leads to waste of food items unnecessarily. Beach is walkable and is just 2 - 3 minutes walk from the hotel. Can not give review on food, as I did not take food in the...
