Old Florida Gem
I enjoyed my stay. I was only there one night on business, but it was nice and relaxing. It has a great old Florida feel, shaded and relaxed. Check in was easy and everyone was friendly. Yes, I guess you could say it was "dated" as some reviews said, but my room was clean, inviting, and more than functional. Nice pool area also. If you're looking for the Ritz, go elsewhere, but if you're looking for affordable, clean, and comfortable lodging this is a great choice in Sanibel. Thanks for the hospitality.
