I would not recommend this hotel at all unless it’s was an emergency. The main receptionist lady was extremely rude and
Pros:

Only thing I liked was the location and how close everything was.

Cons:

The elevator did not work the whole time and we had to carry our bags up the stairs. The hotel also shares the resting outside area to a cafe next door so there was always tons of customers each morning

Perfect for a quick weekend trip
Pros:

Friendly staff and the hotel has lots of character. It was built almost 100 years ago so be ready to accept characteristics of a 100 year old building.

Cons:

If you get a room that is facing the street, it might be a little loud at night. There is a bar right below and people like to show off with their load cars at midnight.

One bad apple
Pros:

The location is excellent.

Cons:

Their is one bad apple in the basket. A young Hispanic girl working the day shift. She's Rude, lies & makes you wish you had booked somewhere else. Their is 2 Caucasian women, it appears one is a day manager and one works nights. They are very welcoming, and the evening lady is exceptional. She's the only reason we might book again. It's so sad that one lil Hispanic girl can ruin a vacation. We did notice her attitude temporarily change when the manager came in. But resumed her cold behavior the second the manager walked out. She truly has no business being in the hospitality field.

Great for a couple's weekend out.
Pros:

The location was excellent if you're looking to have everything within walking distance, including the beach, restaurants, bars, entertainment, tourist attractions, and convenient access to parking.

Cons:

Because we didn't do enough research beforehand, we didn't realize how noisy the location would be. The property is right outside several bars and along a route where people were walking and talking until around 2:00 a.m. Just as we were finally able to get some sleep, the street-sweeping machines began passing by repeatedly to clean the streets.

In addition, the building is reportedly about 100 years old. I'm not sure if that's accurate, but we could definitely hear and feel everything from our bedroom. We could hear people walking in the hallway, opening and closing their doors, and the constant creaking of the building.

The atmosphere might be fine for a couple, but traveling with our three young children made it much more challenging. Getting them settled and asleep was difficult because of the noise level.
