Clean and well kept, quiet property, one block to the beach. We stayed over the Fourth of July weekend, and location was great for us. It was easy walk to the West Beach, fireworks/festivities. Little longer but relatively easy walk to State Street as well. Nice pool area as well.

This is the second time we have stayed in this hotel. The location is great. The beds are comfortable but it is very expensive. I think there was a surge price for Saturday night due to Fiesta (which we were not in town for so it was frustrating to spend over $600 for one night. The hotel is nice but not sure it was worth the money.
