Pros: I liked the newly renovated rooms, which were very clean. The breakfast staff was very friendly and it was a very good breakfast.
Cons: Stairs next to room were being refinished during our stay. Door to the room was bent, wouldn't seal and barely locked causing noise issues in our room. Construction crews started construction at 7am on Sat AM.

Pros: This hotel is right on the beach. Great bar area out by the pool. Bartender is a great guy. Excellent housekeeper.
Cons: Breakfast could be better. Some of the housekeepers we met on the elevator were a little rude. When a child speaks to you they should at least be acknowledged and not ignored. Everyone else in the hotel is super nice and attentive.

Fort Walton Vacation
Pros:
Cons: I would suggest some type of cover for the air conditioning unit vent, so the air doesn't blow directly on the bed nearest to the vent.
Also, there were patrons in the swimming pool at 5 am, when the rules clearly states the pool hours are from 9-9. I called the front desk to report the noise and no one answered. The noise interrupted my rest.
