Pros: Location was great but my room was right next to an elevator. It got very noisy at times between the luggage and maids carts. I loved that most things were in walking distance.
Cons: Some stains (rust, carpet) are in need of some attention. Also disappointing was the spa not working. And there was not a pull-out couch that was promised.

Pros: I liked the location, right on the beach with some shops, restaurants, and mini golf within walking distance. I arrived just as the area was getting hit with tropical storm Hermine and they were experiencing some difficulties but were welcoming and kind.
Cons: The room is a bit run down, plain without any decorations, and I didn't get any clean towels or maid service at all on the day after I arrived.

Pros: Nothing.
Cons: I did not like the attitude of the staff. The clerk was rude, and insisted they tried to call us to inform us of the elevator being broken. She seemed to think that I could walk up two flights of stairs (I am handicapped and cannot climb one step).

Inexpensive place to stay on...
Pros: Loved the location, outdoor pool, nice beach.
Cons: Breakfast could be later. Parking spots were designed for guests with multiple cars. Couldn't use the inner spots for fear of being blocked in. Several times we noted wasted spaces as people would not pull up because of this. The indoor pool deck is water damaged and soft in spots. The water was freezing! Maids did not clean our room one day. Was reported and done the next day but not well.

Wonderful relaxing, clean and fun!
Pros: the pools and pavilion were amazing! Very beautiful. Clean rooms, perfect area. I am going back again!! Can't beat the value and the price. Indoor and an Outdoor pool. Also a Hottub.
Cons: the woman working the fornt desk during the day. I don't know if she hates her job or what. She did not seem super happy. :( But, the young man in the evening was above and beyond nice. My only other suggestion would be to paint the Hottub walls again and minor maintenance, they were working on things when I was there so they are investing in it. :))

Great spot for a quick...
Pros: Great location, very relaxed right on the beach. Friendly staff.
Cons: Rooms are older and could use some refreshing. A large number of people were smoking poolside which kept us off the pool deck. The bed was very soft (we prefer a more firm mattress.)

Great place to stay!
Pros: I love how clean everything was. I love the view. I was a little sad when we got to our room and there was no couch, just two chairs that looked like they came from a dining room table set. They were not comfortable at all. It rained all weekend which was not the fault of the hotel at all, but we weren't comfortable inside with no other place to sit and enjoy each other's company.
Cons: Make sure there is a couch and some comfortable places to sit besides the bed.
