The property is located in a very convenient location close to the beach, dining places, shops, etc. Rooms are little small and don't expect a luxury experience in this hotel. It's good for stopover stay for few nights. Overall I would recommend this hotel to stay on Ocean Drive in a budget.

Not so great. The hotel is old and was renovated badly. Furniture was cheap and damaged. It was inconvenient to have to go to another hotel to get breakfast/drinks. The street in front of the hotel has been closed for some time but that is not mentioned in the description Location was great. Beach was just across the street

This was our second time staying at The Penguin Hotel! It’s clean and convenient and located around everything you would need. The beach is right across the street. Your booking comes with free drinks, beach towels, breakfast, pool, and luggage storage. What more would we need? 😊
