This hotel is a bit dated and could do with a facelift. It is a pool party hotel which I knew when I booked as I had stayed there before, so ask for a front room at opposite end of the hotel if that would bother you. Take an extension lead as the electric sockets are not located easily. The main lamp lamp didn't work, and the AC was too noisy to run during the night. Continental breakfast only available at weekends which was a shame as it was quite nice. The shower was hot and powerful The staff are helpful and friendly and it's so conveniently located for the beach, boardwalk and all the bars and restaurants are within walking distance. I would stay again
