This place is really nice, and it was very clean and quiet. Loved the closeness to the water and great views of the gulf. Also loved that they had breakfast on site for a price. The room was a little pricy considering you can get condo's in the area for the same price or even a little less, but overall, I really enjoyed it there, and we would stay again.

Pay for what you get
For $353 for a one night not the best experience to sleep. The hotel was 3/5 stars. Staff needs to improve on guiding guest to their rooms. I had to go twice to the young lady at night attitude did not bother to get up from the reception site. Who ever clean the room left the fridge dirty with a plate of nachos. Main concern is that i could not sleep because the bed sheets were very itchy and not comfortable at all. The hallways smell bad. Pool has a lot chlorine in the water. Street view balcony was okay and having access to the beach was fine. Wish the hotel would provide better services to their clients. Please improve for further visits.

Over paid thru Expedia. Clerk couldn’t find booking so it took almost an hour to checkin. Air conditioning unit made annoying noise and air blew up directly into privacy curtain. Onsite restaurant staff were rude and unkept. The lack of parking was super inconvenient. Non of vending machines worked on our floor. The hotel cleaning staff were very friendly and helpful.

Beautiful view of the beach. Convenient to everything Gulf Shores related. Friendly staff. A little inconvenient getting into the hotel and didn't seem super secure. Comfy bed, great shower. Wobbley refrigerator and microwave. For the price, their should be streaming access. Overall a good experience.
