The hotel had beautiful yet simple rooms with a cool and hip vibe in the Grove, though a bit small. The service was friendly, with some standout staff members and free berry slushes for the kids. Despite occasional noise and access issues, the location was interesting with an upgraded modern vibe. Dining was good but lacked variety. The facilities were satisfactory.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were modern and well-lit, with stunning glass walls and attractive curtains that let in beautiful light. The combination of minimalist design with natural wood elements gave the room a stylish and cozy feel. The service was top-notch, although there were some issues with overcharging and missed drink coupons. The location was awesome, with convenient access to free shuttles to the beach. The dining experience was a bit inadequate, but the facilities were excellent overall.
