Good value if your not picky
Pros:

Good location, good breakfast, comfortable bed

Cons:

We noticed the bottom of our socks were very dirty from the room floor… I relayed that to front desk. It was addressed but still was a bit dirty after. Better though. Shower can use non slip surface and a grab bar. Wall shelf under tv was non secure.

If we had been staying for more than 2 days we would have left due to the cockroaches we found in the morning.
Pros:

Very close to Sanibel Island.

Cons:

Poor room lighting and Cockroaches in the room. Also carpet is filthy. I had to wash my feet again after taking a shower. Walked across the carpet and my feet were black from dirt.

No me gustó
Pros:

Casi nada

Cons:

Yo vivo en fort Myers quise ir a pasar un momento especial con mis hijos en la piscina y el hotel pero no cumple con las expectativas en la foto
El cuarto es pequeño el baño no tiene privacidad
La piscina estaba salada y el personal no son tan amables
Que decepción no me gusta dejar malos comentarios pero la verdad no me gustó en nada tuve que salirme la misma noche y irme a otro lugar

Overall, the experience was okay, but the hotel needs significant improvements in cleanliness, maintenance, and comfort.
Pros:

The location is very convenient . The breakfast was good.

Cons:

The room was not very clean, and there were ticks or some kind of insect in the bed, since I woke up covered in bites.
There was also not enough lighting in the bathroom. The air conditioning was very noisy and made it difficult to sleep, and you could hear all the noise from the rooms next door and above.
The condition of the building was also very run-down and definitely needs some maintenance.

Our stay was not enjoyable due to not being able to use the pool due to the uncleanliness.
Pros:

The only thing we liked about the place was the location. It was close to our family.

Cons:

The facilities were very dirty. The water was cold for the shower. The elevator had a hole in the floor. The doors did not open when you hit the button and if they open, it was only one side and it closed quickly. There were homeless people sleeping under the front steps on the left side of the building. The pool was mucky when you got out it felt like you had something on you. The floor in the room was not vacuumed daily the soap dish was not cleaned. The grounds were not well kept example by the pool. There was a sock that had been sitting there for God knows how long and garbage I will not recommend this hotel.
