Great location walking distance to boardwalk. Not many parking spaces. No smoke alarm install and some house keeping needed to be done..room needed paint (pencil markings on the wall next to bed). Room phone disconnect. Shower door felt it was going to fall off. Overral location was good.

The property was very clean! The greeting staff was pleasant and accommodating throughoutour stay. The hotel was modern and the photos on the site was exactly how the rooms looked in person. This hotel also was only 2 short blocks (3 minute) walk to the boardwalk which was extremely convenient.

AMELIA, East Hampton

Travelled with family and small children
Disliked: Amenities
The pool is very small and there is no shade and no umbrellas for those that want to sit by the pool. Because this place is not motel style, there wasn’t anywhere to hang wet beach towels or bathing suits so it’s not the most ideal spot if you plan to do the beach. The location is great, close walk to the boardwalk. The staff was friendly and helpful. There was a leak in the ceiling of our room which had caused the drywall to fall on us while sleeping but they moved us to a new room as soon as we notified them of the issue.

Would stay here again.

Not a Hilton Hotel but it was decent enough for our needs. Soft towels, good a/c, comfortable beds, polite staff, and room make-up daily or at your request.
