The hotel is right across the street from the beach. I loved everything about this place!!! It was just what a cute south Florida hotel should be. I stayed 2 nights solo trip. I walked to Publix which was right behind it. I got a drink at the bar in the lobby and got a drink last evening at the Backflip bar. I didn’t use service while on the beach because I’m a light eater but I heard them with other guests and they were great and attentive. There’s also a cafe in the lobby. If I was the type to stay at the same places, I would definitely come again!!! I loved everything! Also as an Expedia VIP member, I received 2 free drinks upon arrival AND I was granted a before noon early as heck check in. I was really grateful for that!
