Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were amazing, offering great views and full kitchens. I will definitely stay here again. However, if you want a view, you'll have to pay a lot more for a balcony. The rooms could use some remodeling.
The hotel had tired rooms with damaged units, but with a view. It could get a little loud from guests leaving the bar. The room was comfortable with a small kitchenette, although we didn't use it much. It would have been convenient if we wanted to cook.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms provided the softest pillows and mattress, but they were noisy due to damaged units. The staff was friendly but needed more training to reach the level of excellence expected. The location was beautiful but could use some fine-tuning. The dining experience was delicious but a bit pricey. Overall, a comfortable stay with some room for improvement.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, right on the beautiful beach of Lido Key, but there were hidden additional charges to watch out for. The rooms had a great view, but unfortunately, they felt cramped and were not the cleanest due to roaches and a water filtration issue. The service was friendly, but somewhat amateurish, with some mixed experiences with the staff. Despite these drawbacks, the dining experience at the hotel's restaurant, Drift, was enjoyable with great views and food quality.
My stay at the hotel was a pleasant surprise. The room had a lovely ocean view, was spacious and impeccably clean. The hotel location was central, offering easy beach access, but there were minor areas that could be improved. The dining experience at the hotel restaurant was fantastic, despite some timing issues. The service, though, was outstanding, though we had a small incident with housekeeping. Overall, it was a good value for money.
The hotel is in a convenient location, close to the beach with friendly staff. However, the rooms could use a little updating and lacked the promised beach view. The dining experience had its ups and downs but the pool area was delightful.
