Nightmare
Pros:

The location is great and so is the price - it was the cheapest option around

Cons:

The stanch was overwhelming, it's the smell of the cheapest cleaning products in super quantities.I rarely have asthma and this was enough to make it explode. I needed to open the tiny balcony window and block it open so the room would vent. This was a nightmare.
And there is one staff person there that ignores everyone and looks as bitter as they come.
This was a nightmare and I strongly recommend people that have problems with smells to stay away from this place.

Really cool place and look forward to going back
Pros:

Very unique! It’s even a bit hard to describe, the decor is great like a “Hotel California” vibe. Was very very clean and well kept up for it’s age and the grounds are exceptional.

Cons:

The picture or better description of the actual room you are reserving.

Okay but won't repeat.
Pros:

Location was good. Price was good. Room was different. Quirky. Parking was good. TV and Wifi good. Nice views. Commander's restaurant next door excellent.

Cons:

No live check in. No breakfast. Furniture nice antique looking but not very functional. Hotel smells of cleaning solutions but needs deep cleaning. No coat hangers. Not much soundproofing between rooms. No easy access to beach, have to drive one mile to access beach. Charging station next door does not charge Tesla's????

Blissful
Pros:

The location is very good, and the common areas are excellent.

Cons:

We had an AIA facing room. The road can be noisy which makes the balcony less inviting. The rooms that face the intercoastal are very nice.

Great stay. Would definitely go back!
Pros:

It’s in a great location and very close to Crescent beach, less than 5 minutes away. Loved the decor of the bedroom and how spacious it was and having a nice balcony to enjoy the morning view.

Cons:

When we arrived we didn’t know where our room was located or on which floor to go on and my sleep was interrupted by hearing people’s door slamming when they go in and out of their bedroom and in the morning hearing children running around above me while im trying to sleep.
