It kept a roof over our heads until we were able to check into our property in Orangebeach.
Pros:

The location was great, walking distance to food and shopping. Very convenient if you have to book last minute, and is not going to stay long.

Cons:

The room was stuffy and the air condition wasn't cold at all. I also did not like the doors to the room, they were outside.

Almost a perfect 10
Pros:

The room was very clean, comfortable soft beds, amenities and complimentary accoutrements when forgotten.

Cons:

Room staff wasn’t familiar with all items available at the front desk. So overall score 9.99 : 10.

Uncomfortable.
Pros:

I did not like anything

Cons:

Drunk man at the pool blasting his portable speaker, jacuzzi didnt work, pool dirty, breakfast looked unedible, coffee tasteless, bed felt like I was going to roll off, many people roaming around hotel grounds and felt unsafe, had a non smoking room that smelled like smoke, room could have been cleaner, bathroom was the only room that looked and felt clean, had to pull the door shut otherwise could easily push open. Im not sure how this place has so many stars it was deceiving and I would have never stayed there if people were honest with reviews. Not family friendly at all. Felt unsafe with all the foot traffic.
