"Featuring clean lines and glass-box architecture, Tower 23's rooms all have private balconies or patios... a guest-only second-story deck with industrial fire pit overlooks the beach. "

The hotel's Tower Bar, which has indoor/outdoor seating along the boardwalk, and JRDN restaurant, serving contemporary steak and seafood (there's also an eight-seat sushi bar), are worth checking out whether you're staying here or not.

Meat-eaters should order the prime rib at the on-site restaurant—a house specialty.

"This 1926 inn was popular with Hollywood celebrities en route to holidays in Mexico in the 1920s and 30s. The original fixtures lend a delightful retro touch."
Rough Guide
"This renovated apartment complex is a hundred years old. The stately hotel suites feature kitchens and pleasant, large sitting areas, and continental breakfast and wi-fi are free."

Top Choice
"This 74-room gay-friendly place... used to be an apartment building, meaning mostly large rooms with kitchens, vast closets and early American decor."
