Location is excellent, near the beach and a number of great restaurants nearby. Room service food was the best I've ever had! The rooftop pool and hottub were amazing. We spent most of our time there and loved every minute of it! Our room was spacious and very quiet.

Love the location, the style and aesthetic, room was comfortable

Staff, hotel decor and surrounding atmosphere in the area.

The room, staff and buildings were above what we expected! Can’t wait to return

The room was perfect - overlooked state street and the ocean. Wonderful balcony and surprisingly quiet. Also, the location can't be beat with plenty of restaurants/bars/shopping around - and of course the ocean a block away!

location. the room was beautiful and the staff was great

My second time staying at this hotel and I love the design and location. The rooftop pool is something I looked forward to returning to after my first visit, and it did not disappoint.

great location, superb staff, noce amenities, excellent location

it was beautiful in and out. everything about it was excellent thank you for letting us share memories at your fine establishment.

The check in and check out were handled very efficiently. The staff was very helpful, bringing ice, drinks and room service quickly. The Goat Tree restaurant was excellent. We purchased numerous meals there. The hotel was beautifully decorated in a Moroccan theme, that was expertly throughout the entire property.
