Positive Reviews
positive:
Appealing location
Guests comment favorably about the location of this hotel, describing how it is within a short walk of the beach but set back far enough to ensure the property remains shielded from the noise of the beach. There are a couple of restaurants nearby and the hotel offers a good base from which to visit Orlando, Gainesville, and Savannah.
positive:
Good value for money
Reviews indicate that the majority of guests felt they had enjoyed good value for money at this hotel. Not only do the rooms and suites come at a reasonable price, the included freebies will help you to save money throughout your stay.
positive:
Basic but clean rooms
Although there are a few issues concerning the age of the accommodation, the rooms and suites are generally described as clean and comfortable and reasonable for the price. A couple of guests had some issues with the air-conditioning, but most found it was acceptable.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Some street noise
Although the hotel is away from the noise of the beach, a small number of guests say that the property has just three stories so some street noise filters into the rooms. Also, a number of reviews suggest that staff members stand outside chatting and smoking - an activity that can be heard by guests.
negative:
Small fitness room
Some guests describe the hotel's fitness rooms as one of the smallest they had even encountered in a hotel. Equipment seems to be limited to an exercise bike, a treadmill, and a handful of free weights.
negative:
No microwaves
This hotel does not offer in-room microwaves. Nor is there a communal microwave available for guest use. This makes preparing snacks to enjoy in your room a little difficult. On the plus side, the mini-fridges allow you to store cold items.
