Stayed at Sea Glass Tower in July 2016. Check in was quick and fairly easy. There is a small parking lot across the street and a small parking deck about a block away. They offer 15 minute parking in the building next door for loading and unloading. At prime check in time, it definitely took some circling of the block to make that happen.
The building itself is modern but doesn't offer a lot of amenities. They share amenities with the Yachtsman buildings on either side but it's a couple of very basic pools and hot tubs. There is free laundry on site and a small indoor pool but otherwise, it's really just about the beautiful beach location.
The suites are very small but VERY well appointed and comfortable. Nicely decorated and equipped with pretty much anything you might need.
The one big drawback of this building was the street noise. We happened to be there during Mustang week and, although we were on the 11th floor, facing the beach, the street noise was almost unbearable. The second night there, we learned that they had earplugs at the front desk and availed ourselves of those. I would say that it might be better when there aren't hundreds of souped up Mustangs gunning their engines until 1 or 2 in the morning, but frankly there were just as many souped up pick up trucks filled with drunken revelers gunning their engines all night as well. I cannot recommend this place if you are a light sleeper. It was nice to be just at the end of the boardwalk and just a couple of blocks from the fun touristy stuff, but I'd be willing to walk a little farther to avoid the traffic noise and have some amenities (bar/restaurant, pool, etc)
