"Service here was amazing. Breakfast that was included was always delicious. The hash browns that looked like chicken nuggets were to die for. This hotel is in the perfect spot if you’re looking for chill beach vibes during the day and going out to the bars/clubs at night. You’re a 5 minute walk from the center of old town. All of the good restaurants are within walking distance and you don’t have to walk more than 20 steps after leaving the hotel’s elevator to get to the beach. Will definitely be staying here again in the future"
