Property location is awesome. Very walkable and quiet being on Harbour Island. The views are amazing. The staff is great. The pool is small. The property is getting a little dated, but they keep it very very clean. Can’t beat it. I will be back.

Very Disappointed

I would not recommend this hotel. Very outdated. Our room was very disappointing. It smelled like stale cigarette smoke. The bathroom vanity had multiple cracks it in with dirt accumulated and hair (not ours) on the floor. The AC wasn’t working hardly at all. The bedding was way to bulky and hot. The comforter was 5-6” thick and extremely heavy. Definitely not for Florida heat. We came back from a concert and drove up to the valet. There was man was standing there looking at me and I politely asked him if valet was still open and he looked at me and said I don’t know I’m security. And didn’t say another word. Very rude. We had breakfast at the hotel with a 10% voucher they had given us on check in. There was no one to greet you. We stood there for a few minutes and I finally caught eye contact with a waitress and asked where do we sit and was told to pick a seat. The buffet was overly priced for the quality of the food. Very expensive for the quality of this hotel.

Smells of sewage

The staff at the front desk are amazing and helpful as can be. They offered free breakfast for confusion of hotel/room. Beds are comfortable and they provided a free roll away that was also comfortable. The pillows were not as comfortable as the beds. The property needs a renovation. The room and halls smelled of sewage and the fire alarm blinks a bright white light 24/7, which kept us awake at night. The pool was over crowded with no towels and I was over charged at the pool bar. I paid $500 a night to stay here, definitely NOT worth that amount.
