Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were very comfortable and clean, but the outdated carpeting could use some attention. The spacious layout, including two bathrooms and a large balcony, was a plus. However, there is room for improvement in terms of cleanliness. The service was accommodating, with the staff changing our room and assisting with late check-in and early cab arrangements. However, some staff members seemed distracted by personal cell phone use. The location was good, with easy access to the city center and a nearby grocery store. Still, outdoor areas could be better maintained for guest use. The dining experience left much to be desired, with poor quality offerings, limited selection, and disorganized service. On the positive side, the Welsh pastries were a highlight. Overall, the hotel provides a mix of positives and areas for improvement.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and simply furnished, but the lack of breakfast choices was a downside. On the bright side, the room had a nice view overlooking the ocean and the city.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and offered breathtaking views; however, the service was a bit lacking in attentiveness. The location was convenient, and the dining experience was delightful. The facilities provided were top-notch, making it a great choice for a relaxing vacation.
