My stay at the hotel was a delightful surprise. The location was unbeatable, just steps away from the beach and conveniently close to St. Armand's Circle. The stunning ocean view from my room was a highlight, and the service was attentive and friendly throughout my visit. On the downside, while the dining options were solid, I felt that the breakfast could have offered a bit more variety.

Our stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable overall. The location is fantastic, just a stone's throw from the beach, making it easy to soak up the sun. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay pleasant, but the room could use some updates to improve comfort. The dining experience was lovely, especially the breakfast options, which were diverse and appealing. While the pool area was well-kept, a bit more space in the room would have made our family stay even better.

We had a pleasant stay at the hotel, enjoying the beach right across the street and the close proximity to St Armand’s Circle for dining. The rooms were comfortable and well-kept, providing a decent escape for our weekend. However, while the service was accommodating, the dining could use a bit more variety, especially at breakfast. Overall, it offered solid value for the price we paid.

The hotel offers a fantastic location across from Lido Beach and close to St. Armands Circle, making it convenient for beach activities and dining. The rooms, while undergoing some wear and tear, provide spaciousness and comfort. Service experiences varied, with some staff being accommodating while others seemed less engaging. Overall, it provides good value for the price, but some updates could enhance the stay.

I had a fantastic experience at this hotel, which is perfectly located across from the beach and near local shops and restaurants. My room was spacious and comfortable, with a lovely view of the ocean. The staff were attentive, which made my stay even more enjoyable. However, the dining options left something to be desired, particularly the breakfast selection. Still, the amenities and atmosphere were excellent, making it a place I'd love to revisit.
