The hotel has a fantastic location close to many attractions, including the beach and a local venue. The rooms were clean, but a bit awkward due to the lack of privacy with the pool area right outside. I really appreciated the friendly staff, but the dining options left something to be desired considering the price. Overall, it felt like good value, but it’s not ideal if you're looking for privacy or an extensive dining experience.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was fantastic, just a short stroll from the beach, and the oceanfront view from my room was amazing. However, I found the room wasn't as clean as I had hoped for my kids, which was concerning. The service was decent, but there were some issues with housekeeping. Overall, the hotel is in a great spot, but cleanliness is an area for improvement.

The hotel offers a great location right by the beach, which I really liked. The rooms are alright but definitely need some major work before they’re rental-ready. The service was okay as well, but I found the pool area to be a bit lacking in privacy since it leads right out from the rooms. Overall, there are some great aspects, but improvements are needed for a better experience.

I had a rather disappointing experience at this hotel. While the location is fabulous, being right at the beach was a definite plus, the rooms left a lot to be desired with unpleasant smells and pests. The service was okay, but nothing special. The dining options were not up to par considering the price we paid, which made the overall value feel lacking.

The rooms smelled awful, like dead fish, and had some cleanliness issues with bugs present. They seemed superficially clean, but the lack of security latches was concerning.

I had a relaxing stay at this hotel, which had a magnificent ocean view from my room, and the location was perfect right on Garden City beach. The rooms were clean and well-kept, and the cleaning staff did a great job making the beds daily. However, the kitchen facilities were more limited than expected, and it would have been nice to have a bit more in the dining options considering the price we paid. Overall, great value for money!

The room had an amazing ocean view and was kept clean with fresh beds made daily. However, it lacked basic amenities like a phone or an iron and the kitchen was just a small fridge and a hot plate.
