Nice little place
The place was in a great location with easy access to the beach. Rooms were pretty clean. Beds were comfortable. Stove and full size fridge was super convenient. Areas around pools were clean. Outdoor hot tub wasn’t hot at all, but the 2 inside were. Only one elevator, but the place isn’t huge so waiting for an elevator wasn’t terrible. The staff were all friendly.

Love this hotel!
I actually stayed here for my sweet 16th birthday weekend years ago! The balcony was great, the rooms were clean, the carpet could use a deep shampooing but I understand with pools and the beach they get dirty. The indoor pool was amazing for my two little ones to swim while it’s cold! But love the staff, our stay was great!

Great beach visit
The lady who checked me in was wonderful. She really went the extra mile to resolve my situation. Thank you. The room is wonderful: spacious, clean, quiet, and I love the ocean side balcony. The restaurant is closed this week, so I won't get to sample that. The hot tub was nicely warm and felt good. Yes, I would stay here again.

This place is really nice, and it was very clean and quiet. Loved the closeness to the water and great views of the gulf. Also loved that they had breakfast on site for a price. The room was a little pricy considering you can get condo's in the area for the same price or even a little less, but overall, I really enjoyed it there, and we would stay again.
