Very misleading website.

Place is extremely dated. Front desk employee could care less about guests. Completely disorganized and has limited grasp of English language. This hotels website is very misleading. This place must have been very nice in the 1920s and 1930s but not in the last 60 plus years

Lovely stay at vintage hotel

Vintage hotel with vintage charm, but lacked modern conveniences ie, bathroom fans, usb ports, limited electric outlets. Limited handicap accessibility due to stairs to enter Pros: friendly staff, laundry facilities, bar service after 4:00, continental breakfast/coffee in mornings, on strip with easy walking to bars/restaurants and a lovely veranda with bistro table and music on weekends.

On the negative side, this historic hotel itself is a bit shabby and the lobby is dark. The poorly trained front desk staff member who checked us in neglected to tell me that they offer a really nice breakfast gratis every morning with home made muffins. On the positive side, the rooms are nice and the beach club, located two miles from the hotel, is wonderful. It has an enormous pool, a lovely open air restaurant and is right on the beautiful Delray beach. Also, it is delightfully quiet with no pumped in music or cell phone conversations allowed. Overall, I’d say the hotel is a real find as the prices are reasonable, parking is gratis, breakfast is excellent and the hotel offers a shuttle to its beach property if you don’t want to drive. We definitely plan to visit again!

Walkable to all of the great restaurants in Delray Beach. Not a fancy hotel as it is an older property but the pool and cabana is beautiful.

Good and Close to Great

Really comfortable bed. Nice fragrant room upon entry. Nice size bathroom. Courteous staff, nice cozy bar. Good size TV for the size of room. Friendly and efficient maid service. Lots of good to great. A couple improvements needed. Better lighting in hallways and better breakfast outlay. Nicer fluffy bathroom rug would be a plus.
