Skip Phillipsburg, Especially as an Older Traveler
Pros:

We were in room 29, a jr suite (no living room). Lovely terrace with full sea view...quite nice out there. AC was excellent, full kitchen helpful, and location right on the beach was terrific. Bathroom was very clean. We highly recommend Bastard's Bar and the Buddha Restaurant, just steps away.

Cons:

Front desk staff was not particularly welcoming or upbeat. They did permit an early check in which was helpful, but it felt like we were intruding on their time. There is daytime construction at the property so it's not a place to go for quiet (it all quieted down by 5 when cruise ship folks departed). The pool appeared dominated by young women using obscenities, acting aggressively. As an older traveler it again didn't feel inviting. The room itself has serious wall discoloration under AC, obviously water damage. There are more than a few knicks, dents and scrapes all over the walls. It needs to be repainted, at least. No paper towel or hand cloth in kitchen. The bed itself was terribly non-supportive, even lumpy. At one point I dozed in a plastic kitchen chair. I also nearly had a side door slammed in my face by young girls pushing through too fast. No one apologized. Also please note: allow DOUBLE THE TIME you think you need in a taxi out of Phillipsburg...the traffic is awful all the time for such a relatively small city. I recommend not staying there ..much more relaxing at the properties on the eastern coast.

Pros:

La piscina esterna che si affaccia sulla spiaggia molto bella. Posizione in centro e sul lungo mare.

Cons:

Camera senza finestra, a parte quella sul corridoio che dovevi tenere con le tende tirate perchè passavano tutti, phon chiesto più volte ma non era mai disponibile, staff alcuni gentili altri invece non molto. Appena arrivata c'erano i pinguini in camera dal freddo che faceva per l'aria condizionata impostata a 18 gradi, neanche d'inverno ho una temperatura così bassa in casa.
Sicuramente le cameree i bagni hanno bisogno di ristrutturazione.

Everything is wrong!!!
Pros:

The service from the young lady at the front desk

Cons:

We did not receive the room i upgraded to with a balcony. Instead we got a room with 3 single beds, no kitchen, and one small window. Dark and dingy. We went downstairs and checked out. My card had already been charged. I have not received a refund eventhough booking.com customer service said I should.

Room 29
Pros:

The best feature was the comfortable bed and large bathroom / shower.

Cons:

The loud door slamming was the most annoying. It echoes because of the tile floors etc and for this reason we would probably pick a different place next time.

Perfect location, but the room (room 31) I was in NEEDS renovating
Pros:

I loved the location

Cons:

Every piece of furniture in the room needs to be changed. They're all worn out. The bathroom was horrible. The TV never worked. And we barely got water for showers in the mornings. The water pressure is very low. The place was noisy also.

Bello
Pros:

Hotel spartano,ma pulito e tranquillo,basic,ma sulla passeggiata del lungomare dove fare belle passeggiate, supermercato accanto,altri a poca distanza,facili da raggiungere anche a piedi, molti ristoranti ma la qualità lascia un po' a desiderare,il migliore il Greenfield.Alle 5 di pomeriggio quando partono le navi da crociera chiude tutto anche i ristoranti.Lettini gratuiti in piscina e spiaggia,dove c' è Dwain (spero di aver scritto bene) gentilissimo che da tutte le informazioni.spiaggia fronte hotel bellissima

Cons:

I ristoranti chiudono troppo presto,la colazione sarebbe indispensabile,si fa fatica a trovare qualcosa x colazione.
