This hotel offers a fantastic location, just a short walk from Clearwater Beach, making it a great choice for beach lovers. My experience was mixed, as the initial service and room orientation left something to be desired, but the staff later turned things around. I appreciated having a pool area to relax and enjoyed the sunset views. However, the dining options were not ideal, and I found the rooms could use some updates for a more modern feel.

I had a really great stay at this beach hotel, which is just a short distance from the beach and offers a lovely experience overall. The family suite was perfect with spacious rooms for sleeping and relaxing, and the staff was incredibly helpful, especially Robert at the front desk. On the downside, the lobby could use a little more lighting, and the dining options were just okay. The pool was a peaceful retreat in the evenings, which I truly enjoyed.

The hotel had some lovely views and was in a decent location close to shopping and food options. However, the experience was marred by slow check-in, uncomfortable beds, and poor service at the restaurant. Even with a nice ocean view, I wouldn't prefer staying here again due to the overall older facilities and service issues.
