Staff here was super friendly, location is perfect. Walking distance from bus terminal, ferry and taxis. Breakfast was great right on the beach. The beach was cleaned up each morning. Room was comfortable. Bring earplugs as it is extremely loud at night from nearby bars (not the hotels fault)

Create location, good restaurants nearby. Very close to the heart of the action on fifth Avenue. Hotel is charming. Right on the beach. Staff could not be more friendly or helpful. Good restaurant on premise. Very good breakfast included. Room comfortable and clean. Good air conditioning and sea breeze. We have been there three times over 20 years and it’s only gotten better. Enjoy.
