For sure won’t stay there again. Way overpriced for the rooms. I reserved a room for 5 and there was only 2 beds. 340.00 for a 150.00 room. Stayed there quite a bit and always say the place isn’t worth it. Will not make that mistake again. If you want to keep your boat in there than maybe it’s ok but not for me.
