Pros:

Très bel hôtel avec un style très créateur. La chambre était grande et la salle de bain très grande ! C'est très propre. Il y a du matériel à disposition pour la plage. Et des vélos.
L'hôte est d'une gentillesse remarquable. Il est aux petits soins pour ses clients et prêt à rendre service.
Proche de la plage et des restaurants. Je recommande.
Notre road trip a duré 1 mois, c'est l'accueil le plus chzleureux que l'on ait eu.

Cons:

Il manquait un micro ondes et une chaise dans la chambre.

Comfortable and great location!
Pros:

Loved the location! There were tons of restaurants within walking distance. The beach as super close. The roof top terrace was awesome!

Cons:

The tv channels. No real local channels, so we couldn’t see a final playoff basketball 🏀 game.

More of an Aparthotel than an Actual Hotel
Pros:

Can't beat the location. If you need a cheap and clean one night stay, and DO NOT HAVE TO PARK A CAR or need any services, this is a great spot.

Cons:

No one was at the front desk when we arrived. A sign on the desk says to call a number if you have questions about parking or check-in. No one picked up when I called, and no one responded to my text. About ten minutes later I got a call back and was told the parking was full and we could use their sister property to valet overnight. This was our only choice since you cannot park overnight on the streets or the public lot across from the hotel, so we ended up spending over $50 to park ($46 charge plus tip) at their sister hotel. Valet was nice though. Also, while the hotel patrons are mostly quiet, we were on the first floor and could hear people coming and going during the day and night.

Great location, modern, clean rooms with great roof top terrace
Pros:

The room was plenty large enough, the shower room was huge. Location to the beach and restaurants was excellent.
Although we didn't get chance to use the roof terrace it looked amazing and would be great for a chill out or party/drink on an evening.
Staff/management, although they are remote, were prompt in communication and resolving issues.

Cons:

Only complaint would be that the room door is straight into a corridor which is a through route and the door isn't very well insulated against noise. Also, the BLUE LEDS on the fridges in our room were ridiculously bright.
A note of caution ** PLEASE ENSURE YOU VERY CAREFULLY READ THE PARKING RESTRICTIONS NEARBY. THE HOTEL DOESN'T OFFER EXCLUSIVE PARKING** I fell foul of this but the management stepped up and refunded my parking citation as a good will gesture.. great service.
