Pros:

The location was good! Within walking distance to the beach. Was a little disappointed with the beach access. Most of the beach is private not a lot of space to set up in the non private areas. However the water was crystal clear! The rooms are very clean! The breakfast was good!

Cons:

Beach access, the pillows are not comfortable, the room was a lot smaller than expected. Both pools are very small, the hotel is right next to a go cart park. ( However it wasn't very noisy but the lights shined in every night in our room) Our curtains wouldn't close all the way to block light from coming in at night.

Pros:

It's a great location and not to far from the James Lee Beach. The employees were friendly and the room was clean. I enjoyed having a balcony. Would definitely recommend.

Cons:

No major complaints with the facility. I just wished some parents would be more considerate to other guest trying to relax in the hottub. I didn't enjoy the diving or splashing. I believe children should definitely have fun and there are two pools just for this.

Pros:

War im Allgemeinen okay. Der Sandstrand ist wirklich klasse!

Cons:

Das Hotel lag nicht so zentral wie im Internet dargestellt. Man musste erst die Straße entlang bis zur Ampel. Am Strand selber gab es nur oberhalb einige öffentliche Zugänge. Strandflächen tagsüber für Besucher anliegender Hotels reserviert.

Pros:

Great selection on the breakfast. The room was very clean and comfortable. It was close to the beach where you could either walk to the beach or have a very short ride.

I was disappointed in the condition of my room.
Pros:

Staff was polite and helpful. The location is great.

Cons:

It was pretty run down and dated. Housekeeping did an awful job in our room. I feel like they took out the trash and changed the sheets between the last person and my stay. The shower was dirty, the floors were dirty and the alarm clock went off at 5:50 am waking up my family. My kids wouldn’t go back to sleep so that was really upsetting especially since we didn’t get to the hotel until 11pm.

The property is overpriced for what you get.
Pros:

The location is good, close to restaurants and attractions.

Cons:

My TV didn’t work for practically the whole trip, I asked staff if they could fix it multiple times. They finally fixed my tv the day before I was supposed to check out.
