Staff very friendly and helpful, especially Daniel! The property is in a period of update and remodeling. They have a ways to go but they try to accommodate your needs and wishes. A decent full breakfast menu that gets switched out daily. The only drawback was the nightly pet fee.

Convenient location to Ana Maria which is where we wanted to go. Small pool but still enjoyed it. Lobby was really clean and smelled good. The only issue I had was the room smelled musty from the AC. I lit a candle and it sufficed for our day trip.

We had a pleasant stay. The hotel was clean, and the beds were very comfortable, which made for a great night's sleep. We also enjoyed the breakfast, which offered a variety of options and was a great way to start the day. We did not have the opportunity to use the pool, so we cannot comment on that amenity. Overall, we had a positive experience

Staff was great , plumbing for toilet and shower not draining too well, Stayed for a night, although they were going through renovations, they should have the lobby with proper air conditioning it was not cooling at all, and the temperature in the fridge was not cooling at all the yogurt,milk and creamers for breakfast definitely should be more on the colder side since it’s dairy . I stayed here a few years ago and it was a similar experience. Thought by now that would have been taken care of .

Room was clean but musty smelling. Staff was nice, breakfast was good. I need to hire the person who took the pictures for this room. If they can make those rooms look that pretty they will make my goofy family portrait look amazing!
