Liked: Cleanliness
The location is great as it is an easy walk to dining options and is on the beach. The first room we were put in was quite noisy and eventually we were able to move to a much quieter room. The rooms have no coffee or tea which I think is a big miss. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are a good size. They could use a table and 2 chairs so that you don’t always have to sit on the bed. The onsite restaurant isn’t open all day, only the one by the beach. This is unfortunate because the restaurant off the lobby has a very nice ambiance. Some of the staff is great and some need a bit more training but this seems to be more common since covid. Overall it’s fine but could be better with some additional touches to make stays a bit more comfortable and pleasant.

Plunge never disappoints. One of the only properties with a beach bar / beach access and is at the end of the strip so it is pretty quiet.
