The staff was so friendly at check in and all through our stay, so helpful in every possible way! We loved the food at the Bistro and the staff there was just wonderful as well, joking with us and smiling while they were working. I can't say enough about this place, the amenities and the room, the beds were all just perfect!

Amazing stay!! Everything was absolutely perfect. Staff was wonderful and our room had a beautiful view of the Casino. Location was perfect for walking to the beach and while it was close to everything, it was so quiet and relaxing. I can’t recommend this hotel enough! You will love it!

Perfect location

Beautiful lobby, bell service for luggage to and from the pier. Staff were friendly and helpful but could never reach the desk by phone and the desk was unmanned for a period of time. Supplied complimentary prosecco and when asked, had sparkling cider but they forgot to bring to the room. Rooms were very small with only one stool for sitting. Complimentary bottled water and a small refrigerator were lovely amenities. Close to everything and didn’t have to walk up a hill.
