Checking in and checking out were quick. But the staying was average. The room is small and it even doesn't provide a chair or something similar to sit down on. The Wifi was slow and disconnected every few minutes. The floor had sands. Apparently, the floor was not vacuumed or cleaned well enough before checking in. But the for the money, not much to complain for.

Loved the hotel. The layout, view and decor was great. The restaurant was great. The bar tender outside (wish i could remember her name) was the absolute best. I'm not much of a drinker and she made me a watermelon drink that was superb. I sat out there abs talked to her for a hour while my husband fished and she was so kind and professional. This hotel was definitely one of my favorites and we definitely will stay again!

We always stay here, the view is amazing and love the remodel. Not happy about the $50 parking charge. I think that is ridiculous.
