    The breakfast. No variety, served in awful plastic plates and the quantity was limited. Worst breakfast I have ever seen in a 4 star hotel. Almost offensive.

    Location, hotel had beach towels and chairs for the guests to enjoy daily at the beach.

    The breakfast options could be more varied, namely the drinks. Only coffee or tea was offered, but it would be nice to also have milk and orange juice available.

    The location is excellent and the staff are extra attentive. I was pregnant and they always ensured all my needs were met. The extras included, such as the water bottles and the beach towels were great touches. Strongly recommend!

    The elevator was very small. Sometimes the elevator was not working. Good thing we were only on the second floor. The water in the shower was not getting hot. It wasn't until the next day it started to heat up.

    The location was perfect. It is located near several restaurants and bars. Being so close to the beach was a plus!

    Excellent location in the best part of Ocean Drive (no cars traffic). Very good breakfast and qualified staff. Only quite loud AC unit outside, so overall is 9 instead of 10.

    Amazing hospitality and a few mins walk to the beach!

    Only downfall was that there was no view from the room, and the lift to the 2nd floor is very old school, but that could be the look its going for.

    Hotel is Ocean Drive, so you can walk across the road to the beach, thats how convenient it is. Breakfast was included and that was really nice.

    Room was pretty outdated, would be nice to add an actual door to the bathroom shower so you don’t end up splashing water on the floors when showering and then having a falling accident.

    Location was excellent, first row to the beach enterance. Hotel staff and receptionist were very helpful and answered all of our questions.

    A few things we noticed that are worth mentioning.. no coffee machine or ability to make coffee in the room. Only one hook to hang towels on in the bathroom. Only a tiny space for our own toiletries in the bathroom No way to turn the air conditioning completely off. Adults offered tea or coffee with breakfast but NO drink offered to kids apart from milk. This was particularly odd.

    Stunning location, stunning hotel, fabulous staff.

    The hotel is older but you stay for that reason and whilst it doesn’t have all the facilities of newer hotels it makes up for it with charm.

    A beautiful, classic old hotel. A great location and very friendly and helpful staff.
