My stay at the hotel was quite disappointing. The rooms were not well-maintained as there was no fridge or microwave, the cleanliness was off, and the beds were terribly uncomfortable. The lack of staff presence made it feel unattended. The only good part was the easy access to get to and from each floor, but that's about it.

Upon arrival, I found the hotel's location right on the beach really convenient, with easy access to Pier Park and Sharkey's for great drinks and food. The place was littered with cigarette butts, which was a downside, but the beachfront location and nearby dining options made up for it.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, right on the gorgeous beach next to Sharky's and near Pier Park and food options, but the rooms were not up to standard, being very dirty and in disrepair. The service was friendly but the promised early check-in was delayed. The dining options consisted mainly of basic items like bagels and muffins. Despite the cleanliness of the pool area, the overall experience was somewhat lacking.

My stay at the hotel was quite disappointing. The rooms were in bad condition, barely worth the price they were on sale for under $100 a night. They were dirty, with a sink that drained into the floor and uncomfortable beds. The lack of staff presence made it the worst place I've ever stayed.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious but unfortunately had mold around the ceilings, floors, and faucets which created an unpleasant smell. The service was subpar with staff not being friendly or accommodating to our complaints. The location, although near Sharky's and the beach, was marred by noise, litter, and a long walk to get morning coffee. The dining options were limited to mainly bagels, bread, and cereal. Despite these drawbacks, the hotel did have some positive aspects.

The hotel is conveniently located right on the beach and offers a great view. The rooms are spacious and modern, but the lack of a shower curtain and unpleasant odors were a downside. The service, however, left much to be desired. The location was ideal for beach lovers, despite some littering issues. The dining options were satisfactory but not exceptional.
