Cleanliness
6
Multiple reports of poor cleanliness: roaches (room and elevator), stains on sheets, hair in bathroom, mildew smell, carpet and room odors — several guests asked for steam cleaning or reported unclean rooms.
Service
9.4
Front-desk staff repeatedly described as friendly and helpful on check-in; however, some guests reported unaccommodating behavior and rude/early-closing breakfast staff. Overall service leans positive at the front desk with isolated negative interactions.
Location
9.8
Consistently praised: convenient, close to attractions, quiet back area with water view for some rooms — location is a clear strength across many reviews.
Room Quality
8.5
Mixed room-condition feedback: comfortable beds and generally clean in some stays, but issues reported with AC, small or malfunctioning TVs, non-working phones, slow-draining sinks, damp or bleach smells in some rooms.
Amenities
8.7
Facility amenities include a nice gym and pleasant breakfast area cited by some; however, placement of coffee maker and dated carpets/TVs were noted. Amenities generally present and useful but breakfast execution detracts.
Value for Money
8.3
Several guests found the stay decent for the price, though a few felt it was not worth the money given cleanliness and service lapses; on balance value is slightly above average for this property.
Food and Beverage
7.1
Breakfast frequently criticized: limited hot options, no fruit/yogurt, cereal without milk at times, empty stations, long waffle lines, and staffing/stock issues. Some guests did note acceptable/basic breakfast items.
Overall Experience
9.4
Many guests report a good or great stay (quiet, helpful front desk, comfortable beds, excellent location), though notable negative experiences (cleanliness, breakfast staffing) lower consistency. Overall sentiment skewed positive among reviewers.

Pretty decent for the price.
Pros:

Breakfast was OK. No fresh fruit. It was nice that they had grits.
I was amazed that even though I requested the quiet area in the back of the hotel, we still had a view of the water! That was an added bonus.
The hotel was definitely not new, but seemed to be fairly well kept and clean when we were there.

Cons:

The tv on in the breakfast area and loud every day. The carpets could use a good cleaning. I thought that it was odd to have a coffee maker in the bathroom. Some staff not super friendly. Very busy road down below.

Pros:

Comfortable bed

Cons:

Road noise is loud, bathroom sink didn't drain, TV was going out with lines on screen, lady working breakfast was very rude and started closing up before the scheduled window. Breakfast options were very limited and no toppings for waffle.

Great location. Clean stay!
Pros:

The location was great. It was clean. The guy who checked us in was very friendly and helped with questions we had about the area.

Cons:

The breakfast wasn’t good at all. It was the normal hotel breakfast but it was empty the whole duration of breakfast and everyone had to ask for things. It was not kept even slightly stocked. Milk was out the whole breakfast. Also could use more than 1 waffle machine because there was a line for it the whole time where it was our only option. No fruit. No yogurts. Cereal with no milk.
