There was very low water pressure in the shower, I slipped in the shower floor because it was very slippery and the bed was too soft that it sink with two people in the king size bed. Its was a very bad experience for a single night that we needed to rest from a long trip and a late arrival

The immediate area around the hotel was fine. However we drove down to Ft Myers Beach and were disappointed because a lot of the places were still closed due to damage from hurricane Ian.

Mixed review

Hotel very clean. However we had to ask to move rooms , first room had strange smell and felt very damp , the carpet especially. Seemed that the carpet had been cleaned and had not been left to dry adequately. Asked the night time receptionist to change our room and she did this with hardly speaking a word to us . All other receptionists we encountered were very friendly. 2nd room was much better , beds comfy and room clean . Breakfast was nothing special with very poor provision for a gluten free diet , when I asked I got handed a rock hard gluten free bagel.
