For $400 per night, this hotel needs major repairs inside and outside, as well as it needs to be updated and cleaned. I am sorry to say, but I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

What I didn't like was the room. The double bed was like a twin bed and the bathroom was for handicapped people. No couch just one small chair. When we asked why we had a handicap room and ask for an upgrade, she said it's because we booked through a third party which is EXPEDIA and an upgrade would be $400 per night?????

NO ELECTRICITY-SHOULD GET A REFUND

The electric was out at the hotel. Tried to communicate with Hotels.com to initiate a refund. They communicated a couple times stating they couldn’t reach anyone at the hotel. I responded with their electric is down and calls can’t be taken. Hotels.com said hotel has to deal with it. Still waiting to speak to management at hotel.

I did like this property. It's close to downtown by car, and they do have shuttles going to convenient locations. The staff really went above and beyond during a power outage at the property. Every one was incredibly friendly. It's in kind of an odd location, literally in the middle of route 17. To leave, you have to make a fairly dangerous turn into very fast traffic. Room was fine, and clean, with a nice view.

Sufficient

It was clean and the beds were comfortable. You can see that they have updated the furnishings. However we stayed on on of the top floors and early morning Hot water didn’t exist. Probably because not enough people were awake to force the water to the top floors during normal AM or evening bathing times. The place was convenient for the price, yet difficult to get in and out of because of its location. Overall it was decent, not highend like most hotels in the area, but sufficient.

The light from the parking lot shown through our window so strongly that even when closing the curtains, the lights spread through the room The upstairs dining facility has come a great long way since the first time we’ve stayed here but they still need assistance. They offered a special of grilled shrimp for $17 but nothing came with it but the grilled shrimp. We were asked to sit in the area of the bar to accommodate the servers that were available. We did not mind that however the guests in the area of the bar we’re so loud that it made feeling comfortable having dinner there exceptionally difficult.
