"Sparkling clean Great breakfast buffet"

So, we've vacationed at multiple hotels/resorts the last 15 years. This is by far the cleanest hotel we've ever stayed in. I think it's relatively new. The breakfast buffet was great. They had scrambled eggs, omelets, bacon, sausage, biscuits and gravy and more. We stayed here on the way to Panama City Beach from Ohio and booked an overnight stay on the way back too.
