It was perfect for us and we only chose this property for the view. When one of our rooms were unavailable the staff were quick on their feet and found us an even better room on the 7th floor overlooking the beautiful gulf

The staffs are not kind of friendly and helpful. Moreover, there is a man that might be a cleaner of the pool. He blocked the parking way and he thought it’s normal. I don’t understand!

The check in staff was awesome. Heated pool and hottub open all the time is awesome. View is awesome. Hotel is a bit dated and you can hear everything from the next room. through the walls. But a great affordable place to stay.

I stay here every time I visit which is about 4 times a year, never had issues. It’s in a great area and always super clean. The manager and front desk manager are both incredibly nice and helpful. This time our bathtub wouldn’t drain properly (wasn’t worried about it as we were leaving the next morning) and the manager immediately wanted to help and I told him it we weren’t worried about it but just wanted him to know. He thanked me and offered again to let him know if we would like to switch or have someone come look at it. Still our favorite and always affordable hotel in the area.
