Good but need a good breakfast
Pros:

Property was clean and staff very freindly. It was right on the lake and had plenty if seating

Cons:

They offered a $10.99 breakfast buffet. They said the gal called in sick saturday and sunday. Understandable. The complementary breakfast they offered was just bad, horrible unacceptable. Only problem is the buffet was in a room we ate in and there could have not been to offer on the buffet that they didnt offer for free. Personally i will not stay here again. Note the staff were all great and friendly amd the place clean.

Pros:

What i liked was the convenient location of the resort, it was close to downtown so easy access to restaurants,bars,shops, and things to do there. It was also rite on the beach so acces to that whatever day I wanted to get some sun or take a swim was a breeze,(depending on weather of course). I also like that housekeeping does it's duty everyday and will come tighty up the room if need be,and the staff members I had encounters with were friendly.

Cons:

I am not sure if it was thrown away by accident mistaken by garbage, or it just disappeared from my room, but the bag for one of my sunglasses 😎 is no were to be found now that I am home and have unpacked and double checked everything. I am 100% positive I had it with me when arriving to hotel, and had left it on top of dressers were TV is mounted on to dresser wall. I dont like being that person,and I know it's just a bag for sunglasses, but its the principal of respecting people's property that belong to them. Don't think ill ever see that bag again, and I dont think I missed placed it.
