Pros:

The room was just what I wanted, clean and spacious. We were near the pool with a good view of the ocean. The staff was extremely helpful they helped my husband push the dolly to our room.

Cons:

The rug in the Suite was not secure on the floor . It can easily cause someone to trip. The rug was very thin and needed to be replaced.

We have chosen to stay here every time we visit Fort Walton Beach!
Pros:

Access to the beach is why we stayed at this location. We have stayed here in the past and liked it enough to come right back!

Cons:

The elevators were a little slow and warm with all of the traffic coming up and down, but that is the only thing I can think of where I wasn't comfortable. I'm not sure what they could do to get some air flow inside of an elevator.

The hotel is great for getting a spot on the beach at a goodmprice but none of the amenities are worth it
Pros:

Right on the beach

Cons:

The coffee bar wants exorbitant prices for cold donuts/ microwave burritos its cheaper to go get great food five minutes down the road not really a great perk of the hotel

The beach and location is the only good things about this hotel.
Pros:

Good beach location

Cons:

The rooms are not clean. The floors are filthy. I took towels and mopped the floors because they felt so nasty. We had roaches in our room, and the refrigerator stunk bad. The furniture is so uncomfortable. After being at the beach you want to come in and relax and have somewhere to sit. The furniture is like cheap apartment stuff. Very uncomfortable almost impossible to sit on. We’ve stayed here several times because it’s budget friendly. We won’t stay again, we’ll pay more money to stay at a better place.

Disappointed
Pros:

Beach access

Cons:

Woke up to floor covered in water from a broken ac. Slipped on floor and some of our stuff was ruined for the wetness.
The hall to our room was outdoors and felt unsafe. Looked sketchy too.
Lots of men around the bar area which was right next to where we had to walk for pool, our room and the beach. Didnt feel very safe.
100% not worth almost $200.
