The hotel is right next to the Tropicana and on the boardwalk in New York. The location is great for being on the boardwalk of this non-gaming hotel, even if it may not compare to other boutique hotels I've been to in the past.

My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The location was fantastic, right by the boardwalk with close beach access and complimentary chairs and umbrellas, but there were some cleanliness issues in the rooms that made me uncomfortable.

The hotel wasn't a penthouse like you would imagine, more like a standard suite but continues to meet my expectations of a boutique hotel. However, we had no hot water in the shower throughout our 2-night stay, a fully cracked window that was Scotch taped, no internet signal except 1 bar strength by the floor near the door, a spider in a drawer and its cousin, some unknown bug in the shower. On the positive side, the accommodations were spacious enough to easily accommodate 5 adults.

The hotel at the southern-most part of the boardwalk provided a mix of comfort and style with beautiful bay view rooms.

The hotel is in a fantastic location right across the boardwalk, perfect for enjoying AC without staying in a casino hotel. The rooms, although clean and average, seriously lacked good lighting. The service, though mostly courteous and service-oriented, had a few miscommunications about pricing. Dining offers moderately priced dishes reminiscent of an old diner, and the on-site facilities are adequate but could use improvement.
