The property is close to where I needed to go. The breakfast was so,so. There was not scrambled eggs, only hard boiled. There wasn't any water in the room, but the staff seemed to be hard working and friendly.

I really enjoyed almost everything about my experience. Checking in was very fast and easy. I arrived and was in my room within minutes. Everything from the room to the property were very clean and well cared for. The room was big and the bed was comfortable. The only issue I ran into was someone from the room next door snored so loudly that it actually woke me up in the night and kept me from getting much sleep. I don’t want this to be confused for poor construction or something like that. During the day when people in other people were up and active there was no sound at all. So it’s not like the walls are super thin, it was just luck of the draw that whoever was in that room was exceptionally loud when they sleep. I was not able to hear other people’s TV or people walking outside the room. I think it was an extraordinary circumstance, however I didn’t get much rest.

This worked out very well for me and I’d definitely use it again! The only slightly annoying thing was a temperamental door lock.

We really liked this hotel it was nice. It had a pool and laundry and we had a kitchen. My only slight down fall was having an ant issue in our room but maybe that was normal with the heat

The property is well maintained. We stayed in a King suite. The room was very quiet. The one issue we encountered was the a/c. The room was a bit musty upon arrival. We put the air conditioner on. It functioned fine. The temp was set to its lowest setting but the room never got cold. The air did dry out and the smell improved. I would stay here again. It is east of the attractions and beaches with easy access to the 805.
