I was hesitant booking this hotel at first due to some reviews that spoke negatively about it. But I am so glad that I went a head and gave them a shot. Everyone was so nice and helpful. We stayed for 6 nights and had a kiddo with us. Every night they play a movie at the pool which was one of the best parts. and if you book during summer hours, you will see fireworks every night from Sea World. This hotel is in walking distance to the ocean, don't let the bridge scare you ;-) If we ever come back we will stay here again. my only complaint is the dinning at the hotel is ridiculously expensive other than that 5 stars all day long

Was good, just a few minor complaints. The coffee maker in the room is from 2001 probably and not very easy to use. Would be nice if there was an outdoor shower in the pool and hot tub area so people could rinse off before getting in or out. there are a few little fees that you don’t find out about until you get there but there not that expensive. The restaurant called firefly is really nice and has a decent and affordably priced menu. Not having to leave the property is a huge plus because as you know, parking in that part of town is ridiculous.
