Good choice for beach view room

The beach view was beautiful. The actual room was fine, nothing special but it was clean. Hotel clearly older the elevator wasn’t working when we got there. Breakfast was the basics for a hotel; coffee, bagels, yogurt, frozen waffles. If you’re coming for the beach it’s a great choice.

Breakfast was okay. Most of it is too much sugar for a diabetic. That should change. Oranges and bananas, bread yogurt with too much sugar.

Take a Pass

For the price I paid, not worth the stay but the location and the fact of it being a holiday is the only reason. Very dated, and the elevators were broke a lot of the time, one or the other were. Thin walls, and we found a dead roach on the floor. I've stayed at a lot of places on VB Oceanfront and this was not one of the good ones. The people however were friendly. Didn't eat their breakfast so I can't say how that was. Very tight parking deck as well.

My party signed up for a three-day two-night stay, but after the second day we bought a fourth-day and third night stay. We found the room very clean and appointed with designer bed linens. When first moving in we had trouble with the TV and it was addressed immediately. All the personnel were courteous and dedicated. The included breakfast was the standard fare of instant or pre-packaged muffins, bagels, toast, French toast, yogurt, juice, coffee, etc. and we could eat as much as we wanted (in one sitting from 7 to 10 AM). The beachfront property was very pleasant, and the balconies provided a secure way to enjoy the views. The access to the beach was immediate, and there were shops and restaurants a few steps away. The elevators wear and tear betrayed the age of the building but other than the elevators, the room seemed fresh and renewed. The covered parking structure was easy to access from the guest areas at all times.
