The Milo

The Milo

8/10 Good
"Pros: The location of Hotel Milo is perfect! Right across from the ocean/pier! We borrowed bikes from the hotel and biked along the bike path. The pool was almost empty so we were able to use a nice padded lounger. A guitarist performed on the hotel patio and there were drinks for purchase. Cons: The room was super small, had an uncomfortable mattress, had a huge plate glass window in front of the bed, no chair to sit on in the room or dresser to place your clothes."
