This was my fourth stay at Aqua Beach Hotel. My room (Largo, oceanside) was large and clean with an efficiency. The staff was friendly and did their jobs. The pool area was clean. I love the location on the southern end of the Boardwalk. Beach access is extremely convenient. One suggestion. If you intend to make tea/coffee in the room, bring your own mug. The cups in the room were very small. That's a tiny issue. I like it there.

Great location, walk onto beach and a block from the start of the Boardwalk. Walking distance to several restaurants. Clean room, however the safety lights outside each room saturates the room at night. There are no curtains, and the blinds do not block the light very well.
