The location is fantastic, right next to the Fountain of Youth Archaeological site and a few minutes from the historic downtown. The room was clean and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and attentive. The breakfast was very basic and it didn’t have much of a variety, nor did it have a lot of healthy options.

The bed was hard, super hard. The floor was filthy. The frig made a loud humming sound when it was on. The heat setting was either to hot or to cold. Code violations, steps to the unit was to steep and the toilet was to close to the vanity. We were scheduled for three days but left after the first night. We were refused a refund. We will not use Expedia in the future as well.

Amenities were not well maintained. Building was rundown, dirty and surrounding green areas were not well manicured. Ice maker in our building was not working and the one that worked was dirty. Room did not look clean and the shower had no water pressure.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The place was charming, the room (170) was nice and accomodating, and the bed was big and fairly firm, and we slept like rocks. The tiled floor was cold and could have used a mopping, but the shower was big and worked fine. The pool was well maintained and the breakfast was good and abundant, with all the normal breads and cereals, juices, and sausage, eggs, gravy and biscuits-nice. What really stood out was the wonderful front desk lady Joanna. She was so sweet, kind, helpful, effortlessly wonderful, the best hotel person we have ever run across. The property was very nice overall, with plenty of minor faults, but you can park right near your door, and it is free parking, so we liked it.
