Room was a nice size, everything was clean and the breakfast was good! AC in the room was pretty loud, but kept the room cold. Front desk had another room ready for me if the unit was too loud for the night. Stayed here for two nights while family stayed on Anna Maria Island! Easy drive to the beach, will definitely stay again. Nothing negative about the hotel at all.

No idea why there are bad ratings. I had a beautiful room that was probably remodeled. I thought the entire place looked amazing. Not the best location in terms of finding it, but close to restaurants.

For the price was pretty good!! Sadly, there’s always people that litter and they left a bag of garbage outside our door, but we did tell the receptionist at the lobby She even apologized for them and said she would take care of it.

The A/C units in the room are old and noisy. The noises kept me up all night and I did not get a good night’s rest. However the staff were very polite and professional. It is not their fault that the condition of the A/C units have not been updated. The towels were also old and dingy.

Not worth $176/night....
Check in was smooth, dead roach on the floor, tv had a seizure inducing picture. Requested a replacemen tv twice Friday and Saturday with no results. Coffee maker in the room was broken and was told they don't have a replacement for it. Bed was comfy but the pillows are too small. Breakfast was delicious, real eggs not instant, no oj only apple and cranberry juice.
