We liked the place. Room was great etc. The elevator is funky, requiring patrons to fully close cage door when exiting. If not done properly, others can't use. Otherwise, the place was great.

This hotel is in an excellent location right across the street from the ocean and boardwalk. The room was very large (I upgraded) and the breakfast buffet was excellent. The only shortcomings were that the internet keep dropping in the room and the lighting in the room was very poor. That being said, I would start there again.

Good stay at this hotel. The area is nice right on the water and the ambiance and rooms are nice. A few minor issues include the poor quality for breakfast and some minor housekeeping issues. My bathroom hose had a leak and flooded the entire bathroom. Overall it was an ok stay.

Amazing

Tout est parfait. Le personnel est extraordinaire du debut à la fin. Tres bonne localisation pour visiter stone town à pied. Et la vue sur la mer et le coucher du soleil incroyable. Sejour inoubliable dans cet hotel qui vous ramène dans lhistoire avec cette architecture coloniale.
