Staff was very friendly and helpful. There is limited parking and construction so workers are parked there as well. The back door to the hotel did not work with key access which was close to the room. After construction I am sure everything in the hotel will be better.

Overall a good experience

It was a great trip. Great location across the street from the Park. Can get around the island and beach easily from the hotel. The rooms were great! The couple of things I was not real comfortable with were the set up of room doors to the lobby is not private enough for me and you can hear everything going on in other rooms. Overall a good experience.

Always a great stay great location on port A

Very pleasant. We have stayed several times. Walls are a little thin but no big deal. Breakfast is some fruit, pastries, cereal, no hot items. It is not a Hampton Innn breakfast but it’s way cheaper to stay here. Eat breakfast somewhere else. Will definitely be back!
