Room is listed as queen and double config when it's actually a queen/double and single. AC sounded like a plane or truck was going passed all night and was not cooling the room whatsoever. No fans in the room so the room was disgustingly hot. Doorhandle wobbles and moves in the door. Haven't heard back from my numerous requests for compensation for the experience.

More info about parking before you get there as there's no parking available on the street if you haven't checked in. A better website to find where to change bank card details if card doesn't work for the deposit. Needs signs around the building showing where room numbers are. Soap in the bathroom needed, a tissue box needed.

The room was clean and beds were comfortable …a complete set of cutlery would be good, there were no knives or teaspoons. Loved the pool and the shower was hot and full stream. Some WD40 spray needed on all sliding doors.
The pool was pure vintage and lovely.  Close to the beach and all amenities.

Parking was not secure despite being advertised as such. The room was tiny and very worn, not like the pictures at all. My bed didn’t have a blanket and a very stained mattress protector. My son had a stained blanket and no mattress protector (being a former hotel managers daughter, I always strip my bed as I leave). No convenient power points. It was a place to lay our heads for the night but that’s it.

Very poor unit all round. Terrible beds. Poor cleaning. Wasn't the room I was shown when I booked. The whole place needs a major overhaul. No one entered our unit the 7 nights we were there and did anything. No rubbish was collected and I couldn't find anywhere to put it. It wasn't a place you wanted to spend anytime in apart from sleeping. The wifi was good. The parking on site was ok. It was very handy for the Florida tram stop so that was a plus but I paid premium and expected slightly better. I wouldn't go there again.
