Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms I was initially given weren't clean, and some drawers didn't close properly, but the room with a bay view I eventually got was breathtaking. However, it was noisy at night due to ongoing events. The service was a mix of lovely interactions and unexpected charges. The location was excellent, though lacking some attention to detail. The dining experience offered a fair selection, but at a higher cost than expected.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms fell short of my expectations, lacking in cleanliness and amenities. The service was a mix of knowing what I wanted and being accommodating, although some aspects were lacking in friendliness. The location, while convenient for exploring nearby areas, was noisy and had its disappointments. The dining experience left much to be desired with subpar food quality. Despite these drawbacks, the facilities offered some positives and negatives.
My stay at the hotel was quite mixed. The rooms were perfect as always but the air conditioning was not working very well, which was quite uncomfortable considering the humid Florida weather in August. The service, especially from the valet parking staff, was very friendly and helpful, but there seemed to be a need for a better procedure for reporting maintenance issues. The location was excellent for our purposes but was noisy due to its proximity to the interstate. The dining experience was a bit of a letdown with limited options and a high price tag for the quality of the food.
