Excellent service and great location
Pros:

The location is excellent we were two blocks from the Main Street Duval. The breakfast is amazing and it is delivered to each room. The room we choose was small but efficient.

Cons:

Next time I would choose a larger room. The porch in front of our room was right on the street great for people watching. The garden/pool area is beautiful tho.

Great location and a pleasant stay
Pros:

The staff was great and Dwight at the front desk was very helpful and helped with guiding us and had all the answers we asked.

Also the woman that check us in was very helpful with guiding us and coming out to the street the first day to help us find the location

Cons:

Smaller room with larger suite cases and charging port on other side of bed would have been nice and possibly a trash can in bathroom or maybe a larger one or added trash cans just suggestions but we made it work and would absolutely recommend hands down
