Mejor limpieza al baño, los balcones son compartidos , la separación nos es la adecuada y más con mascota grandes y cuando hay niños .que se puede generan un incidente , un solo ascensor funcionando , la máquina de hielo no es suficiente

Grundsätzlich kein schlechtes Hotel, für das eine tägliche Resort fee bezahlt werden muss. Für ein Margaritaville-Hotel
Pros:

Es war alles sauber aber eigentlich kein Unterschied zu Best Western Hotels. Das Frühstück war für amerikanische Verhältnisse relativ gut, aber nichts besonderes. Wenigstens gab es echtes Geschirr und kein Plastik. Die Nähe zu Anna-Maria Island ist natürlich ein positiver Aspekt.

Cons:

Die Zimmer sind sehr klein. Das Personal ist insgesamt sehr unfreundlich. Außerdem muss man zusätzlich eine tägliche Resort fee in Höhe von 25 Dollar plus Tax bezahlen, die aber nicht gerechtfertigt ist.

WE LOVED THE PLACE AND WE WANT TO COME BACK
Pros:

We loved the smell at the lobby, the staff and the pool was the plus !!!!! My mother that has almost 70 up, she loved and felt very comfortable there.

Cons:

I thought the lobby will have some free snacks during the day (it was advertised in their webpage) and it was just the water.
