Good stay!

Studio room would definitely have been a perk if we were staying longer than a day! Having a kitchenette in room, awesomely convenient! Overall the room was great, spacious, clean, comfortable. The showerhead was kind of corroded which maybe makes it look a little dinghy at first glance. And the carpet has that feel when carpets get old and over used, where... It just feels a little sticky. Staff was excellent, incredibly friendly service.

The property needs updating. The room was very humid even with the a/c running. The towels, our clothes, the sheets felt damp because of this issue. The bed and pillows were comfortable, but the dampness issue made it hard to sleep since you felt tacky. The kitchen did supply some pots and pans but no plates, bowls or utensils. So if you plan to use the kitchen, plan on disposable I guess unless it was just an issue for our room. The chair in the room really needs to be cleaned because there was a definitely an odor from it that lingered in the air at times; again, could be from how humid it was in the room. The lobby and hallways were fine though. I tried to mention this to the front desk; however, the gentleman seemed to ignore me and the woman who tried to help I don't think understood me completely. I get it's Florida and have had humidity issues before, but this made for an uncomfortable stay.

You can see that this hotel is well maintained by staff. Staff member Elena was so friendly and kind. The rooms were very clean with plenty of space. This would be a great place to stay for an extended time with the full kitchen. Would recommend.

The manager was very rude and inconsiderate. We were dressed down in regular clothes and she judged us walking through the door like we were thugs or something. I will never stay at this location ever again.
