Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Upon entry into my room, noticeable musky smell like dingy old wer basement. Had to open door for several hours to get the stanky smell out. Very dated room. No sound insulation at all so you can hear all noises, talking, foot steps etc. Room cleanliness or entire common area, very clean. Would not recommend. Pay more to stay elsewhere next time.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Breakfast buffet was great. Coligny is within walking distance. Celebration Park and playground is accessible from the back of the hotel. Getting into or back to the hotel 10pm or later, parking is tricky. There's some garage parking spots, some paved spots with lines around the front, a few handicap spots and EV ports, but the overflow into the back is gravel without anything to really guide people on distance between cars. Be cautious and ask the front desk if you find yourself in a predicament or can't find a spot.

The staff were friendly, kind and patient. The hotel was, neat and orderly. But, we were disappointed in how old the building was. The showerhead had a lot of corrosion on it. The shower handle could be turned either direction to be turned on or off. The toilet was not stable, so when sitting down on the seat, there would be movement. It was not what we expected.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The staff were very friendly and always willing to help, which made the experience even more enjoyable.The rooms and overall property were spotless, showing great attention to cleanliness. The buffet breakfast was honestly the best hotel breakfast I've ever had—plenty of options and everything was delicious. The location is perfect only five minutes from the beach and within walking distance of great local restaurants and bars. An excellent choice all around!

The room had a few things that needed attention, such as a night stand between the two beds that was coming out of the wall to the point where I had a hard time keeping my phone on it without it falling off, and the bathroom toilet paper holder being unhinged, as well as the towel holder. I shared that with the front desk when checking out so unsure if they acted on it.
