We stayed here prior to our week in a house on Cape San Blas. Great stay! With full refrigerator/freezer, we were able to unload our ice chest to keep food items cold or frozen until we could check-in to the beach house. Location is good - close to hospital - a few miles from Port St. Joe. Quiet location. Complimentary breakfast was good. Enjoyed our stay!

What a relaxing 3 days and two nights. The king efficiency was impeccably clean. Breakfast was hot and delicious. The pool and outdoor living space were cleaned and refreshed nightly. The day manager was extremely cordial and great eye for detail. This was the second time I stayed there, and Ill be back.

It was nice having the complimentary breakfast each morning and my granddaughter enjoyed the pool. The room did have a smell that I believe was coming from the air conditioner. It even bothered my granddaughter. The King size suite was roomy and perfect.

The breakfast was sub-par. Not well stocked, options few. Room was great, bed comfortable, met our needs. Staff was pleasant, check in was good. An employee kept interrupting the staff member checking me in, which I felt could have waited until my check in was complete. Not the best professionalism. Over all it was good for a one night stay.

We were given the last available room despite having a reservation and told we were lucky because there had been an incident in another room. The room was directly off the lobby and it smelled of mold and mildew and was very humid and everything was damp/wet, despite the AC being on. Glad we only stayed one night otherwise we would have had to find new accommodations.
