Hotel is situated about a 10 minute walk from the boardwalk (but bear in mind it’s uphill on the way back!) where there
Pros:

We had a 2 bedroom suite which suited us since my husband and I were travelling with our adult daughter so this gave us a good space. Both bedrooms were very spacious and we appreciated having 2 bathrooms. The kitchen area was good but there were only 2 chairs at the kitchen table. This wasn’t an issue for us as we ate out every day but would have been annoying if we’d actually wanted to eat in the room.

Cons:

We didn’t particularly enjoy the breakfast - only went once. Felt a bit cramped.

Disappointed disgusting property but good location for a tourist
Pros:

Location

Cons:

The condition of the hotel and our room was extremely disappointing and far below what I would expect from Hilton standards.

The carpets throughout the lobby, corridors and rooms were filthy and looked as though they had not been properly shampooed or maintained for years. Even the elevator appeared extremely old and poorly maintained.

The room itself was in unacceptable condition. The bathroom silicone had visible mould, the room was not properly cleaned, tissue rolls were not placed in the holders, and there were hairs on the blanket. We were four adults but were provided with only one proper bed and a wobbly, unstable sofa bed with an extremely uncomfortable mattress that felt unsafe to sleep on.

The king-size mattress was so soft and worn that we were literally sinking into it, making it uncomfortable even to sit and spend time talking with our family.

Despite calling housekeeping to tidy and clean the room, the garbage was left as it was and the toilets were not properly cleaned.

Our check-in was scheduled for 11:00 AM, yet we did not receive our room until 3:00 PM.

Most disappointing of all was the cost. **We paid $667 per night for this room, which is an outrageous amount for a hotel in such poor condition.** At that price, we expected a clean, well-maintained property and a room meeting proper Hilton standards. Instead, we felt completely cheated.

This experience was not only disappointing but genuinely sad. The condition of the property does not justify the room tariff whatsoever. Management seriously needs to review the maintenance, housekeeping and pricing of this hotel.

Très apprecié
Pros:

Déjeuner très bons et complets, il faisait un peu froid dans la chambre avec l'air climatisé que nous ne pouvions pas ajuster nous mêmes. J'aurais préféré la salle de bain à l'extérieur de la chambre des maîtres puisque nous étions avec les enfants.

Cons:

Divan lit non fait a notre arrivée bien que nous avons payé pour 3 personnes. Pas assez de serviettes considérant qu'elles ne séchaient pas avec l'air climatisé. Serviette pas assez grandes pour personnes plus costaudes. Manque un peu de vaisselle ( poêlon plus gros, un bol à salade, un économe et ouvre boîte seraient nécessaires)
