And I would recommend for my family and my friends to stay there too.Because it is a very nice hotel and the room was clean.The pillows were nice so yeah , and I wanna thank you guys

Cons:

The bed was very comfortable but I was hoping to go swimming but I was at the beach more with my family, but everything else was great. The service was good. The employees were nice. The manager was nice and I will stay at your hotel again if I'm in the area.

The place looked nicer in person than pics. My only complaint was the shower was clogged and I forgot to tell them/ wasn't draining. And there were 2 huge water bugs. But was very clean and comfy

We were very impressed. Great staff, great location, big pool, very nicely remodeled room. Very impressed and we will be
Pros:

Newly remodeled. Fantastic bathroom. Nice big pool. Fun sun deck to eat on. Great location. Staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. We’ve been staying in the area for many years but first time there. Although maybe slightly more expensive than we’ve paid in the past it was worth it for the niceness of the property. We have 6 people so we rented an apartment.

Cons:

Only TV in the living room was a smart TV. Although we don’t watch much TV so it wasn’t that big of a deal.

Pros:

When we first arrived they gave my kids little stuffed animals which made them so happy. It was waking distance to everything, that made us happy. They have a little shop attached to the hotel, they have cute little things for the kids to do if it rains or if you just want something small to do in-between the bigger activities.
