Tried to check in at 4 but room wasn't ready, had to wait about 15 extra minutes but no big deal, however our room didnt have hot water. Other than that, we had a very pleasant stay. The room was clean, the pool was great and my granddaughter loved the toddler pool! Very quiet and bed was comfortable. All in all, great location and fantastic price! Would stay here again.

Decent stay- close to BayCare Park

Our stay was good. We weren’t really in the hotel other than to shower and sleep for the most part. The biggest issue was the family who stayed next to us who were screaming and fighting all night- slamming doors but that’s not something the hotel could help

My guess is this is a property from the 1960's, maybe the 1970's, and it's in need of update. Everything was fine for my one-night stay except that: one of the blackout drapes was missing, the motor for the fan in the bathroom was very noisy, the door key was finicky, and the clock had not been adjusted to daylight savings time. The room was clean, the location great, and the staff helpful. The place just needs modernization and attention. Despite that - it was sold out the night I was there!

Maybe OK for short stay.

Down-at-the heals, but clean. Apparently, a favorite of smokers. Room, OK. Exterior, shabby. Broken ice machines, etc. Some noise from nearby rooms.
