Best part is location. On the river with the river bar. Walking distance to jet express and beach. VERY expensive for outdated rooms and bathrooms. We paid for location and the Bait House river bar

Cracking location right on the water front! Right on it, you opened curtains to see boats 4 feet from you! Really great spot. Only thing to note was we had a room that had a musty smell, but you got used to it after 5mins.

The property was very close to jet express which meant I didn’t have to move my car when I went over to put in bay. The room was clean, but definitely dated. If you’re looking for a slick white hotel room, this is not the place for you.

The room was a little run down. We had to go out of one building and walk a block to get into another building to get coffee in the morning. Just cereal and breads for breakfast. I did expect a little better for the price we paid

Old motel. Needs updating. Room was clean but the bed was terrible. Close to many good ammenities. But it is not worth the price. Room was so small you couldn't sit at the table and work. The staff was nice. good location. No soap, shampoo or coffee in the room. Out dated and the wifi was not good.
