Very Good

we did not have the breakfast, the beds are amazingly comfortable rooms spotless. The water pressure was poor. The staff was over the top helpful and friendly. We would definitely stay again.
All the staff in the hotel was great . So friendly and helpful. No continental breakfast and the onsite restaurant breakfast is expensive with smaller portions
Beautiful property. Very friendly and helpful staff. Look forward to coming back when renovations are completed.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The front desk staff were great. Both ladies we dealt with were personable and helpful. For the price, the room, and basically the whole hotel,
could use some basic updates, painting, and deep cleaning. It pales in comparison to the elaborately appointed casino areas.
Our room was great, as we had one on the newer side. Our family stayed on the older side and did not have the same experience. The breakfast was awful, the food was just not good. However, the place was clean and our room had a beautiful view and a nice balcony,
It was a very nice and relaxing stay. It was very hot and humid, but we found plenty of things to keep us cool and occupied. The location has so many breathtaking views and it is easy to get around by walking or car and easy to explore North Beach as well which is a short drive away. I will come back.
