It’s nothing special. It’s just a normal run of the meal hotel. It was a lot more money for a Bay view then then at our previous hotel which had an ocean view. It was an outer hotel but it was clean. Breakfast was decent.

They had a great and welcoming staff, who work very hard. The breakfast was very good, the pool area and fire pit was very nice, with lots of comfortable seating and lounging. The Sabine Bay was lovely and access to Pensacola Beach was super close. The beds and pillows were comfortable. They offer free bicycles, kayaks and paddle boards as well as have a nice gift shop. I recommend this hotel and would stay here again. It is reasonably priced. Most of Pensacola Beach is accessible by foot which is a big plus when vacationing. Check this hotel out:)

Also, was not to get anyone to come and clear the rooms unless you call the front desk and someone csme in our room while i was gettung dressed thank . The guy was like so sorry look at his oary and said sorry again. Noing darn well we didnot ssk for our room to be cleaned . I clean the bathroom as mich as i could it had mold . Etc . Then gave the cleaning person our wet towels and come back from breakfast . They are back in our room on the floor . I was like time to check out . I was soooo over it . They trespassed into my private area . I went to the front desk and check out . So disappointed . This was our Annivesary . Room 327 also the celling looked like it had water damage . It was alot going on in that place . We had to ask for a iron and ironing board . . Soooo upset . I would not stay here ever for the amount of money these rooms are . You would think they would make sure its spotless and clean and also roomy . The room and bathroom was extremely small ....
