Liked: Check-in, communication, location
We enjoyed our stay . There are couple of things I'd improve. The room unfortunately looks out to a wall, can't do anything about that, I understand, I would like to have known ahead of time.Our room smelled of mold and a broken dehumidifier was in the room. Pool very nice but not heated . The place is in a good area of town. It's not a bad place just somewhere I don't want to go back to

Excellent. Just that at my age & current condition, the steps were a bit much, tub too slippery & toilet too close to a wall while using.Also, we could have used a comfortable chair.

It was a great location. Clean, comfortable, just what we needed! My granddaughter and I had a wonderful 4 days. Great beach, great area, close enough for short trips to other activities. Passé a grille is a great place for relaxing and enjoying some sun and water vibes. La Tortuga has parking, wonderful outdoor areas and very nice rooms with just what you need!

This is a very cool boutique/beach type lodging, tastefully decorated. The room was very clean; everything seemed new or recently renovated. Easy access to both the Gulf of Mexico and Intercoastal,with the streets lined with cafes and shops.

Reviewer Comments:
The bldg is in a great location, very nice room inside but the walls are super thin. On our last night, we were up until 5:00 am due to the extremely loud music and chatter going on in room 5. This overall ruined our stay here bc they said they had a strict noise ordinance and no parties after 10pm, but those ppl were very inconsiderate. They got back around midnight and partied until the sun came up. Believe me I like to have a good party but not to upset other guest and ruin their night. I even went outside to locate them and couldn’t find them anywhere in the common area, so I assume they were inside their room which ours backs up to room 5. Terrible experience here, we had to get up and leave the next morning at 6am

Reviewer Comments:
The rental was great. There needs to be greater transparency in the pricing. The price on the website was much lower than the actual price. The fees are too high and should be stated in the initial price.
