Excellent

They have construction for remodeling going on which we were aware of going into the stay. However, the rooms were filthy. Bathroom still had head hair and pubic hair on the floor and in the bathtub. The bedroom floor was a dirty as well.
The highlight was the bed. The most comfortable hotel bed I’ve ever slept in. If the room would’ve just been clean, it would have made the stay much more comfortable.
The overall setup of the hotel is cool too. Unique layout and views.
I hate to give such a bad rating but the cleanliness was just awful.
Weather was amazing. Beautiful area with plenty to do. Hotel was being refurbished but was quiet and in a great location. We had a large room with a view of the lighthouse. Would stay here again.

The property was under construction . Pool not open. Hopefully when we come back this will be complete
Everything was dirty, dusty and a lot of things were broken. We had two rooms and both were not up to par. If I could have canceled I would but. I feel like I’m getting sick now because of the dust, my daughters had to take Benadryl because of the allergies they got being there.
Comfortable room and convenient location
Pleasant staff though less experienced than on our previous visit
There were extensive renovations in progress which were a bit problematic and timing should have been better timed
Excellent coffee machine in the lobby and complimentary local newspapers
Nice staff but place was under repair or renovation and smelled of paint. Floors seemed sandy in the room. Location was great next to lighthouse ! Perhaps quality will improve after their renovations done.
There should have been a notice that the hotel was going through renovations when making the reservation.

The place is under construction. Wasn’t told anything about it. Contractors using the elevator so you have to wait for them or use the stairs. A lot of the parking lot is blocked off for them. Have to park across the street in downtown parking lot. The pool is closed due to the construction.
Room was so dirty my feet turned color walking on it.

Stayed an overnight in St Simons, on my way north on 95. I enjoy staying in this town, and this property was walking distance to many restaurants. The property is undergoing a renovation, so I am sure I was in one of the older rooms. Despite the Reno, the hotel is doing its best to maintain service. The only thing that was a problem was that the landscapers fired up leaf blowers at 7am, for an hour.

Beautiful setting. As strong odor in room staff was very accommodating in helping me with this. I think the flooring though could you some special attention as it looked dusty. Was a very nice and spacious room. Would consider this hotel again.
