The beds were nice and clean along with the room itself being mostly clean. The morning breakfast was nice for a hotel. Pancake maker, multiple kinds of cereal, juices, milks, fruits, yogurts, cinnamon rolls, breads, and eggs bacon/sausage and biscuits and gravy. Overall a great stay close to the islands!

Heard music all night long our first night. Housekeeping made our bed but somehow didn't move a pillow. Took all our towels and didn't replace them. Breakfast was the usual buffet. Someone needs to clean up the bird poop by the front entrance.

The hotel was very dated and didn’t feel clean. The pool water was almost green and smelled like pee with little to no chlorine smell. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, but that’s about the extent of the good qualities of this hotel! It did the job but we would definitely recommend looking elsewhere first.

The rooms were outstanding! The beds were very comfortable and we would like to know where we can purchase the pillows haha! The only issue is the pool room. It’s very very slick and the hot tub is awkward to get to and from pool. Other than that very relaxing. We stay here quite often. Will always return. Staff is always the best.

vickie

the location is great but I reserved 2 rooms and had a few problems. It took me 2 days of help from front desk to finally figure out tv control. The other room which I needed for handicap purposes was not great. The blinds would not go up so was in darkness all day and night. The refrigerator had to be unplugged at night because it was so noisy and they couldn't sleep. Because of location I might consider using it again but would think about it

We stayed the night and wasn't impressed with the lack of cleanliness of the room. There was dirt on the bathroom floor and carpeting within the room. The bathroom ceiling vent fan cover was laying on the cabinet in the bathroom, which caused us to look at the discolored ceiling.

The room that we booked (for our family of 5) was not available. We were offered 2 joined room. Pushed all of our stuff down, there was no door between rooms. Back to the desk. Ended up squeezing 3, 9 year old kids and 2 adults in a queen with pull out which meant horrible sleep and zero space. Offered our room for night two which meant more wasted time on our trip packing everything, moving rooms. We were initially told we would be reimbursed entire stay. Bad communication. Told when we were leaving from front desk, price was adjusted first night to smaller room price. Then told 1st night was comped. Couldn't talk to the manager, she was in the building, but "is sick". Have not seen reimbursement yet. Hotel was not very clean and smelled of cat urine.
