Great Location and Friendly Staff

convenient locationeasy walkamazing staffextra duvet
The hotel is very close to the south pier and pleasure beach I found this location convenient I was able to easily walk to many attractions The staff was amazing and very helpful. They provided fans and an iron upon request I appreciated their hospitality.
The room was a bit small for a family room but it was manageable for a short stay I think a refurbishment could improve the overall experience.
