Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had a nice atmosphere, but it felt a bit too congested for my taste. The rooms were spacious and well-equipped, but the noise from construction next door was quite disruptive. Service was good overall, although not the friendliest I've experienced. The location was convenient for exploring Surfside/North Beach, but lacking in nearby dining and shopping options.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were spacious and well-equipped, but the ongoing pool construction on the side and the noise from the jackhammers throughout the day were a bit of a nuisance. The service was top-notch with the staff always being courteous, outgoing, and helpful. The location was clean and offered a great view atmosphere, but there were limited dining options nearby. The facilities were modern and well-maintained, making the stay comfortable.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were amazing, modern, very clean, and even smelled pleasantly. Having a balcony added to the experience, making it a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The service, although friendly, could have been a bit more informative, especially about the beach being closed for sand replacement. The location, while clean and offering a great view atmosphere, felt a bit too congested for my liking. The facilities were top-notch, making my overall experience quite pleasant.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were nice and clean, offering beautiful views from the corner unit with two balconies. They were spacious and well-equipped, but the noise from construction was a bit disruptive throughout the day. The service was friendly and attentive, though the room wasn't ready until 4 pm. The location was clean and convenient, with easy access to various attractions. The dining experience was satisfactory with craveable salads. Overall, the facilities were well-maintained, making my stay enjoyable.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were beautifully decorated, clean, and had a very well-equipped kitchen, although they faced a busy street. The service, especially from the concierge for booking a city/boat tour in Tampa, was incredibly helpful and friendly. The location, while full of condos and lacking in restaurants, offered a beautiful atmosphere with a great view, and the proximity to the beach was fantastic. The dining experience of grilled meat was enjoyable. Overall, a comfortable and convenient choice with a few minor drawbacks.
