Good stay for price! We would stay here again. Room and property were clean. Front desk was nice enough but not overly friendly. Breakfast was good. They will not let you fill up water bottles or cups with water from machine in breakfast area. Beds are very firm.

The rooms are smaller than hotels I have stayed in. The pictures advertised do not look like the actual hotel. Most of the staff are not very friendly or welcoming. I stopped at a gas station for my preferred soft drink and they wasn’t friendly at all. It was advertised walking distance to many attractions but actually not. It would have been nice to have known that there is a trolley that would have picked you up at the bus stop to take you to the island. They only offer limited drinks in a soda machine and you pay $2.00 for a can of soda. The rooms are small but ok, the bathroom is very small. they serve the same thing for breakfast everyday and when they say it ends at 9:30 it really does. They don’t offer coffee all day only at breakfast they close off the small dining room so that you can’t sit with family to eat lunch or dinner at a table with any privacy. They do have tables in the small lobby. I was just expecting more and was disappointed, wish I would have just booked a room at the Hampton which where we stayed in North Carolina.
