Could’ve been better…

We got there to check in. The lady was slow to come to the front. Then she left, instead of finishing up my check in she left me with someone else. Though the lady was nice. We had issues getting into the room. Then we finally enter the room and the room isn’t as clean as it could’ve been. There were food pieces on the kitchen floor and the carpet in the room wasn’t swept or vacuumed. You guys need to do a better job before letting guest in to be sure the cleanliness of the room.

The first impression I had was no good. The lobby smelled awful, like a dog run. The employees were very nice upon check in. Entering the elevator the corner was caked, at least 1/4” deep, in the corners and there was French fries swept into these areas too. Our room, 4th floor, smelled the whole trip like moldy Laundry. The halls were not cleaned or kept at all. Housekeeping did not bother to clean the carpets on the floors as I watched for 4 days (housekeeping supervisor career wise) but I did witness the staff mopping around the dinning area. The breakfast area was very clean and well stocked. The food was tasty. They did offer a social hour 3 days of the stay which I thought was equally awesome. The pool was very nice. The grounds crew did a great job of cleaning while I was there. I did extend my stay by one night. My honest review is I would stay again. I would take cleaning supplies with me to freshen up the room.

I do not recommend this hotel. The pool was dirty, there were no pool towels, the rooms was ok but the mattress on the pullout was dirty and was not usable. The complimentary breakfast was lack luster and didn’t even have eggs or bacon.

Just what we needed

The room was spacious and clean. The perfect size for a family with teenagers. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms came at an affordable price. The staff were nice and accommodating. It was an added benefit that there was free breakfast. It was just what we needed to get our day started. I would recommend this place

The hotel is in a great spot, less than 15 minutes from the beach. My concerns was there was no housekeeping done when we were there. The sign stated light housekeeping would be completed Monday-Friday. I had to take the trash out and get new trash bags multiple times and always getting our own towels, while leaving the old ones outside for someone to pick up on the way through. Otherwise, front desk was friendly and room was nice.

The third floor smelled like a dirty ash tray. So bad it was nauseating. Only one small elevator for entire facility which was extremely slow. Room was clean but also smelled like the hall (wet/dirty ash tray). Found another hotel room very close to the beach for nearly the same price. Staybridge was way over priced for what we got. Cancelled after the first night.

When my family and I arrived it looked AMAZING from outside. Checkin was okay the front desk lady wasn’t real friendly but I figured bc she was busy. First she said there’s an ice maker in the room but it’s slow so we have a complimentary bag you can grab..okay cool we walked around to the elevator which took 10-15mins to get to the first floor. (Elevator was slow every time) We get to our room there’s water in the middle of the floor in the kitchen..apparently from the refrigerator. I called the front desk she said it’s not a leak ma’am it’s just left over ice I asked for another room she refused, instead she came to wipe up the “ice water”. My kids were so excited to get in the pool..it was hair all in the pool like no one had cleaned it. We made it back to the room to shower. The tub filled with water. The water wasn’t draining properly so we showered in a puddle of water UNACCEPTABLE. Not worth $394.00 at all. We checked in at 3:47pm central time and checked out at 2:00am central the very next morning. Didn’t even stay 12hours! We couldn’t take it anymore!! I would not recommend!!!!

Nice property, this is my second time staying at the property. My only issue is that the property only have one elevator. When you have a lot of people visiting for vacation, it makes the elevator situation a little hectic. Also was no air conditioning on the elevator. Overall, was a pleasant stay.
