"Great Stay!"

Hotel was very clean and quiet and the staff was amazing.

17-May-2025 Verified Review, stayed from Thu May 15 to Fri May 16 2025 at a $125.99 average nightly rate.
"Good Okay"
Overall Score3.0/ 5
It is a very quiet hotel. The staff is great! Very helpful. The pool area is great for kids, especially the 6" for the kids. The bathroom floor in our room #115 is a mess. The breakfast is not good. The bagels were hard. There was no way to cut them. The Bananas were rotten. It looks very cheap. You can tell they were yesterday's left overs. You should keep the packaging on the muffins. Have a microwave so that we can heat the muffins. Again, the hotel is good. But a few things made it so we will not return.

Testimonials:

Testimonials icon
"Thank you so much for an amazing website. I had a very short time frame to manage a bus tour of 45. I needed hotels and banquets in less than 10 days. The destination was West Palm Beach - high season - and effectively sold-out. Within two hours I had responses back from three available hotels within my price range. I was able to sign a contract within 24 hours and manage the rest of the program. I continue to be impressed with your concept and will be a frequent user of your site." L.B. - Grand Rapids, MI
