We vacation in this part of HHI every year, and have walked by this property many times. The location is fantastic with easy access to the awesome beach, and a short walk to Colligney which has lots of dining, shopping, etc.
We got a last minute deal for just one night. The hotel is under some construction and were told it is about to become a DoubleTree? by the end of August. The rooms are redone, nicely appointed and clean. Not the Four Seasons, but certainly on par with a Hampton or Courtyard. It looks like the lobby will be very nice once completed. Parking is OK? Not a ton of spots, but enough around the property to find a place.
The staff was pleasant and helpful, but probably due to the transition of brands, not quite as polished and trained as a well managed mainstream brand. That said, they tried and were helpful, I'll take it.
Overall great location and nice enough for the price.
