Nice clean convenient!
We stayed here as a half way point in our trip to Florida. So we stayed twice within a week.
The staff at the front desk was excellent and very accommodating. They even met us check out a mechanical issue on our vehicle under the overhang at the front entrance since it was raining.
The hotel is nice and updated and clean. We left too early in the morning to try the included breakfast.

Everything was great except the breakfast. They barely had much to choose from and was nothing to drink besides coffee. Everybody does not drink coffee. We had to go back to our rooms and get something to drink, thankfully we had something.

The room, as well as the rest of the hotel, was in excellent condition. Beds were comfortable and the choice of pillows was nice. I didn't get a chance to use the pool but it looked very nice and well maintained. I did have breakfast and the options were great! Hot choices as well as cold choices and pastries. There even a pancake oven. Overall great stay.

The water in the shower never really gets hot. More like slightly warm. That’s pretty disappointing.
