Clean and comfortable

Nice clean room, maids didn’t speak English but I didn’t mind. Parking lot was full of boats I’m assuming it’s because it was Memorial Day weekend.

Great place to stay!

This was a delight of a stay, it had every little amenity I was looking for, and then some! It was an even better place to stay than I had imagined, especially because of the mixed reviews in the past. I understand the place was renovated over the last few months, which makes sense - the room feels new and shiny!

Definitely a busy area. I was a little skeptical at first .Once I opened the door to our room. Definitely changed my opinion. Room was nice and clean . Modern . My only downside is that I couldn’t sleep well because of the people upstairs running around . (Kids) . I could hear everything outside as well . But overall it was a good clean hotel .
