Satisfied with service.

It was a good stay the room was clean, they had the air on in the room for me to arrive. I didn’t like that they do not give you a receipt to check out early in the morning @ 1:30 am, you should be allowed to receive any hour.

I was disappointed when we checked in and got a room with a dirty bath tub and towels, but Jeri at the front desk apologized and immediately put us in a temporary room while a room type we reserved was cleaned. Jeri spoke to housekeeping and ensured our new room was properly cleaned before we went in. Most of the staff were friendly and courteous but kudos to Jeri for her excellent customer service! 😊

I was in Florida to visit my father. I may not stay at this property again when I visit. I got 3 large spider bites on my legs the first night. These bites made me miserable for 3 days. Also, the area with King beds had no hot water so I stayed in a double queen room with hot water. This room was wheelchair accessible. Unfortunately, the sink had NO vanity. Just a free standing sink. No place for toothbrush, razor, combs, etc, etc. I had to put all my bathroom products out by the TV area. Very inconvenient. So, no, I don't know if I will stay at this hotel again. On the upside, the breakfast was fine and the dining area was clean. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful.

The hotel’s location is perfect. The rooms were clean and cozy. Only issue was it took forever to get clean towels brought to the room and my A/C unit made some weird noise that made it difficult to sleep.
