Travelled with family
Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The shower head has great water pressure and very hot water, needed after a long day of work outside. The AC unit was terrible, the wall thermostat is not a real working one, not sure why it's even there. The window unit was very loud (rattles and makes a high-pitched humming when not blowing), vent very dirty and it only turns one for 1 minute then shuts off for 1 hour, then it turns on again for 1 min. Very disappointing, got no sleep. I think that is ridiculous for paying almost $300.00 for one night. With no proper AC, time to upgrade or fix it.

I am so appreciative of this hotel. I stayed here with my pets during Hurricane Milton. They waived the pet fee for the hurricane. Such a Godsend for me and my fur babies. The hotel was quiet, clean, and the staff was super friendly. If I'm ever in the area again I will definitely stay here!
