Nice location except air conditioning don’t work in room
Pros:

Proximity to the beach

Cons:

Air conditioning in room didn’t work and when staff notified we had a miserable night they were just like, sorry. How about comping the stay - this is Florida and it’s hot and humid so completely unacceptable

Great Hotel
Pros:

Clean and comfortable place to stay in a great location. Love how close it is to the beach.

Cons:

I wish the food offered there was more affordable. But it was close to many other nice places to eat. So it's not that big of an issue.

Nah
Pros:

The pool doesn’t look like that AT ALL! Don’t be fooled. It’s tiny and that corner has a ton of junk in it. and the pool closes at 8:30 when they decide to close their pizza joint. That is the earliest I’ve ever seen a hotel pool close. EVER. The front desk lady has 0 personality and is absolutely no help. She’s not rude but she’s unhelpful, no personality, and no smile in sight. She didn’t explain incidentals to me and basically just pointed me to the pad when I needed to push my card. Had no idea the cost or what she was referring to at all. Not everybody needs a job in customer service - certainly not her

Not the best, but not the worst…
Pros:

Clean room, beautiful view, quiet, plenty of parking available and close to the elevators…

Cons:

Bed was hard as a rock, very uncomfortable. The shower had one temperature, scalding hot. Not enough towels or toilet paper. Luggage carts were broken and very hard to use.

On the beach but not on the beach
Pros:

Compact. Updated. Views!

Cons:

Could not walk to pool or ocean. Was way too far with MS. Had to look over buildings to see pool or ocean, so it’s a bit deceptive in advertising
