Big suite with comfortable bed. Kitchen was not equipped with even basic items like paper towels, dish towels, more than one serving of silverware, dish soap, etc. We had to go buy these items. Additionally, the front desk staff was not welcoming or pleasant. Any question I asked was as though I was bothering them. No welcome or asking about how the stay was. Front desk clerk just handed me my receipt without a word and went back to looking at his phone. We wanted very much to enjoy this place as the location fantastic. Unfortunately, that’s about all it has going for it.

The desk person was very helpful and efficient. The room is old and in poor shape. you know torn curtains ect, refrigerator is awkward. cabinets are Old. Room was somewhat clean, crummy towels. So staff 3-4 stars, room 2 stars, cleanliness 2stars. By the way the hotel charges you for parking. That’s it.

All about the location here. The rooms were not the cleanest and it's very outdated. That said, the bed was comfortable, and had working AC. Would I stay here again? Yes, but convenience/proximity to the Marina is the reason, as I didn't spend a lot of time in the actual room (thankfully). I will also say that the staff was super friendly and very responsive so 5 stars for the people that work there.

A decent hotel but a little tired. Nice pool. The front desk staff were somewhat disinterested. We stayed four nights and it was a great location for exploring the area and as a hub so it did what we needed but it’s pretty average.
