Good value

Overall great stay for the value of the hotel and the park view is the absolute best. Everything worked and I had no issues about my stay. For future guests the ice maker on the main floor is the only one that dispenses ice.

The location was nice. We could see the water view at breakfast. Nice area to walk by the water. The staff was wonderful and our room was clean. The hotel needs a lot of updating work (old, scratched furniture, carpets etc.) No one seems to be staying across the hall with the waterfront view. We over looked the parking lot but we were not in our room much. Overall it was good for the price compared to hotels nearby.

A/C didn’t get very cold, refrigerator didn’t work, no A/C in the hallway, poorly done “breakfast” staff was rude and very unhelpful. One even brought their pets to work who kept barking. After 4 years of staying here, this was the last.

It was in a great location on the water, Tiki bar close by for food and fun. Terrible condition though! Don’t stay here if you have allergies that mold or mildew. It smelled horrible of mold in our room, the hallways are hot and smell gross , the carpets were dirty and stained. They brought a roll away bed for my son and the pillow with it was covered in mold on one end.
