Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's location is its best feature, right on the seafront with rooms that need significant improvement. The service was mixed, with some staff being helpful and welcoming but others refusing refunds. Dining was a letdown with unimpressive offerings.
The hotel offers a convenient location and great views of North Beach but falls short in terms of room condition and overall cleanliness. The staff is welcoming and helpful, making up for some of the hotel's shortcomings.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The lovely view of the harbor and sunrise from the room was stunning, but it was quickly overshadowed by the invasion of ants all over the place. The structural safety of the room was questionable. The service was well-intentioned but lacked professionalism and training. The location, although run down, served my needs well, offering an excellent view of North Beach. The dining options fell short of expectations with misrepresented breakfast offerings. Facilities were lacking, with maintenance issues evident.
The hotel is in an unbeatable location with breathtaking views of the harbor and North Beach, just a stone's throw from shops and restaurants. The rooms, however, were outdated and infested with flies and moths, crying out for a much-needed update. The service was a mixed bag, with delays in check-out but friendly housekeeping. The dining experience lacked a cooked breakfast as advertised but still offered fresh ingredients.
