Our family of five stayed here for three nights on a tour of the south east. It was ok. Location is great. 2 minutes walk to the beech. Everything else was average. Room was large enough but basic, had little natural light and as per other reviews had a background odour of damp and drains. Pool was nice. Breakfast fine but limited. Asked to have our room cleaned with 24 hour notice as they require - didnt happen. Midrange opens are limited on jekyll but if going back I would pay the extra and stay elsewhere.

The room had areas of disrepair. There was an old light fixture on the wall with no shade. The light outside the door ( several others) was not installed, making the hallway very dark at night. Overall, it he staff was friendly and helpful.

Noisy stay (Spring break)

When you're used to staying at a 4-5 star this is sub par. Noise at 7am (landscape) on a saturday is unacceptable. Constant pounding of hammers throughout the day..not sure if this is the right time for renovations when people are trying to get away to relax. Poor timing on Mgmnts behalf. No one answered the phone half the time. Will not stay again.

Location and Spacious

For the price and location on a great island it was a great fit for our family. The carpet in the bathroom had a bit of an odor to it as the days went on, the front desk often had no one there or a long line and some workers were way more helpful than others, check in was interesting. The room had some great things and some sttange things. The shower hardware needs updated, had issues with syopper, and were warmed about taking hot showers that might set off sensitive fire alarms yet if you didnt turn it to hot you got no water pressure. The room is very spacious and again location couldnt be beat if you are looking for a quiet beach option. The breakfast was pretty good also. Daughter enjoyed the pool and there are plenty of spray off stations returning from beach or entering pool.

The staff goes above and beyond to meet your needs. I was able to check in early to give babies a nap. They also delivered whatever I needed. Breakfast is a nice bonus and ifs a step above most continental hotel breakfasts. The king two bedroom is a great value with tons of room! We put two babies in the kitchen in pack and plays, 2 adults and child slept in the “twin room” which is actually 2 FULL size beds. 2 adults in king room.
