In brief

What works, what to weigh

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Street noise can be an issue — Some guests report that windows don't block out sound well, leading to disturbed sleep, especially in older-style rooms.
  • Older-style rooms show quirks — Some rooms have squeaky floors and dated features, typical of a classic Art Deco property.
  • Breakfast choices limited — The continental breakfast is a highlight for many, but a guest notes the selection, especially meats, could be more varied.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accommodate pets, so travellers with animals need to look elsewhere.

“Arrived early after a cruise and could drop off bags at the front. Staff provided towels for the beach while waiting. Room was clean with a nice view, but it was an older-style room with quirks like squeaky floors. The biggest challenge was noise – windows didn't block sound well and I was woken several times. Good experience, but struggled with the noise.”

8.4Verified guest

“For a hotel on the ocean side, the bathrooms are spotless – very important to me.”

“The restaurant was great for dinner, with excellent dishes. Exceptionally comfortable bed, flat-screen TV with cable, climate control, and an individual safe. Magnificent location within walking distance of Twist.”
