Frommer's Review
This four-story complex is much like an American-style chain motel, but its cleanliness and proximity to the action make it the island's best budget option. Across the street from the Allegro, it has no beachfront, but the sea is no more than a 5-minute walk away, and the pool is inviting. Although the rooms have cookie-cutter uniformity, and a slightly musty aroma, the walls, carpet, and furnishings are cheerfully colored. All rooms have either two double beds or one king. The bathrooms are bright and functional if not luxuriously spacious. Many guests are here for the nearby casinos, but the hotel also has dive and honeymoon packages. The wide selection of casual dining venues nearby is a plus, though the Hooters and Benihana, only steps away from the lobby, have removed some of the hotel's former quiet charm.
Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; pool; 18-hole championship golf course nearby; wireless Internet in lobby; babysitting; coin-op laundry

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
