Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
When we arrived the bathroom was covered in hair. On the floor sinks and tub. We dropped off our bags and left right away to explore and start our vacation. When we came back later in the evening to rest, the right side of the bed sunk all the way to the springs and stayed there when my husband layed down. He’s an average size man, 6’0” and 210 lbs. After realizing this bed was not going to work, we went down to the front desk to discuss our options. With it being after 10pm they had closed for the night and left a number to call. We did call and it went straight to voicemail. We decided to find lodging elsewhere.

Every staff person was amazing. Helpful, friendly, and would do anything for their guests. Hotel was clean and spacious. The breakfast was delicious - fresh fruit, crispy bacon and assortment of all kinds of great things to eat. Parking was easy. The weekend was full of rain and the complimentary umbrellas were a godsend! We couldn't quite get the "feel" of the neighborhood but had a car and were in and out. We were a short drive to the beaches and to downtown. Overall great stay!
