Loved this hotel and definitely would recommend.
Pros:

Great location overlooking the water and boardwalk. Easy walk to restaurants and downtown. Staff were great. Our corner suite was spacious, quiet, and very comfortable.

Cons:

Could have used some drawers for storage during our three night stay although there was enough room to leave our suitcases open for access.

good location, staff were helpful, room was clean, bed was comfortable
Pros:

huge room, very clean, staff were very helpful. WHen I booked I requested a quiet room and I was charged an additonal fee for the request; I did not appreciate this. As well, for two nights, I felt the cost was unnecessarily high.

Cons:

the cost was very high

Pros:

Hab mich wohler gefühlt, als gedacht. Bis auf Kleinigkeiten alles OK.

Cons:

Wir überall im Land: auch dieses Hotel ist sehr hellhörig. Wer da empfindlich ist, sollte vorsorgen. Kein Wasserspender vorhanden
