Expect less for what ur spending.
We had a problem in our bathroom with the toilet clogging due to other room being clogged and human feces and water got all over the bathroom floor. I asked if we could get it cleaned and never was.

The walls are super thin so you can hear everything from the room next door. Hard to sleep. But a bit entertaining.

Reflections on my Stay
Overall: While the hotel offers a clean and comfortable environment with friendly staff, my recent stay fell short of expectations, particularly regarding the "Partial Sea View" room. Positives: The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The room was impeccably clean, with spotless bed linens, mattresses, and towels. The hotel is conveniently located in a prime area. The pool was well-maintained and comfortably heated, even on cooler days. Areas for Improvement: The "Partial Sea View" room did not meet my expectations. The balcony primarily overlooked a parking lot, with only a limited and obstructed view of the sea. This significantly detracted from the advertised experience. The proximity of the parking lot to the room resulted in frequent disturbances, including glare from car headlights and a lack of privacy due to insufficiently opaque curtains. Unfortunately, a technical issue with the room key resulted in a 30-minute delay, causing us to miss a pre-booked dinner cruise. Considering the advertised "Partial Sea View" and the inconveniences encountered, I believe the room rate was not commensurate with the value delivered. one other cary part is , the disabled internet feature on TV while they have smart TV in room. You can't mirror your phone or conenct to internet. Which is horrible. Recommendation: I recommend that the hotel re-evaluate the description and pricing of its "Partial Sea View" rooms to accurately reflect the actual view.

Good Location!
It was okay. The front desk staff was friendly, and it’s in a convenient location! However, with the hurricane recently, I’m assuming that contributed to the condition here which is we weren’t too worried about.

Great hotel, its under renovation right now due to the hurricanes. Our stay overall was great, but due to the renovations, it gets very lout outside at about 6 am. I get they have to do what they have to do, and am in no way complaining. We fully enjoyed our stay. The staff was hospitable and kind. Clean hotel with daily towel service.

We had an over all good stay. Staff were very nice and helpful. They only have house keepers every other day and we had to ask twice to get our floor cleaned but in never happened for the 5 nights we were there. The hard tile floor was very dirty. Our feet and socks were black. Besides that everything else was clean and comfortable.

Hotels.com failed to explain all the gidden fees
I booked the hotel through Hotels.com and after i paid the email stated the reservation was complete. When i showed up, i found out i needed to pay $25.00 a day to park and the hotel charged a.mandatory conservation fee every day. I was made to pay for the hotel's charitible giving preferences. I should of asked them to pay me for St. Judes giving. I cant stand being nickled and dimed to death. Hotels.com should have made the extra charges know, they are obviously in a relationship with these hotels. I will not use Hotels.com or stay at this hotel again. Its not hard to be honest with prople up front. I felt exploited. because they know your not going to cancel late in the evening after a long drive and try finding another hotel last minute.. The evaluator felt and sounded like it was going to break every time we stopped at the 5th floor.
