Hotel was very nice and clean. Staff were friendly and responsive, and cleaning staff was great. The pool was nice and the complimentary breakfast might have been the best I’ve ever had at a hotel. Great value.

The hotel staff was very nice but the hotel is very worn down. The furniture in the room was ripped, the carpets old and smelly. The pool was gross.

Everyone of the staff were so friendly and helpful. The room was very quiet. Breakfast was really excellent, fresh with a different selection of hot items each day we were there. And we really appreciated having fresh coffee available in the lobby all day. We had a wonderful stay.

The toilet in our room didn’t flush when we got there. We asked for another room but the hotel was booked. The front desk person suggested to jiggle the inside of the toilet on our own. A maintenance person was never sent.

We had to switch rooms three times. The 1st room was leaking water all over the bathroom from the ceilingand was flooded, the second room that they gave us as an(upgrade for our troubles) we entered our room and was hit with smells that were so bad we did not even wanna leave our suitcases in there to go downstairs to speak to the night clerk. It was so pungent and nasty. We had to get another room. The property around this place is kind of wooded and there were people hanging out in the parking lot drinking and we saw a prostitute. I would not suggest this property to anyone. I travel very frequently to Florida and the Florida Keys. (about every two months). If you are looking to have a clean room and can go to sleep with feeling secure in your hotel room, this is not the hotel for you. The night clerk was very friendly and helpful. That’s about all I can say.
