Rooms were clean, air conditioning was excellent and not noisy. The pool while old, was refreshing and not over chlorinated. Indoor pool area was super cute, like a plastic garden oasis with seating. Breakfast was toast, muffins, yogurt, apple and coffee, tea, juices. Meh Great beds, quiet sleep If you're looking not to pay much, clean room, close to boat cruises this place is fine

A quiet place with free parking. The accommodations was far below our standards. The bathroom window was not clean. The entire bathroom need to be repainted and take out the molding. The room had a heavy smell. Maybe due to humidity from the ground carpet. The bed mattress was not comfortable. If you want the room to be serviced you have to ask for it. The rooms need to be upgraded. The location was pleasant and not far from downtown few minutes by car.

The breakfast was poor because it was store bought packages and not fresh. The bathroom in the room was rotten up the wall beside the tub and floor. The beds were horrible and extremely old and saggy making them terribly uncomfortable.

The property is decrepit which is a shame. If owners would invest a little in keeping the property up to some standard, it wouldn't be that bad because the property is really nice (or it was). The staff is helpful but the conditions of property is not that great. The bedrooms are cleaned just the minimum but if you look harder you see that they need a good spring cleaning. The flooring in our bedroom was peeling off which can be an hazard when walking. The breakfast is a joke, just sandwich bread and jam or peanut butter, muffins and yogurt. Some dry cereals too. We're not coming back.
