The biggest problem I had was I had NO hot (nor even luke warm) water. I literally ran the bathroom sink tap for 45 minutes - no even warm water. The same in the sink in the kitchen area. I also ran the bath tub faucet (to take a shower) for about 10 min - no hot water there either, but I did have at least 6 inches of water in the tub - drain didn't work. So forget about the shower. I had to leave the room at 6:30 for an early flight - got to the top of the steps and the outside lights all went out! I had to walk down the stairs with my suitcase in the dark! For an older person, this isn't a good idea. Minor - the description mentioned a hair dryer in the room. None there. I asked for one when leaving for dinner. He said he would put it in my room. Not there when I returned, I then called the desk and he said it was on the chair outside my room - evidently he remembered and saw me return and hurried the dryer up - there was no dryer on the chair when I returned, as I turned the chair to match the others. Now a bigger problem: My friend needed a first floor room - her companion can't do stairs - they stayed there 3 weeks previously and were promised a first floor room when they returned - even gave them a room number. When checking in (around 3:30) they were told there were no first floor rooms and put them on the second floor. If they didn't want it he would return their money. He was very rude about it, no "I Then I checked in and they me a first floor room!

Room was a good size but very little in the way of amenities. No shower cap but I wouldn’t use it because the shower was discusting to look at. Room was a bit dirty. No phone in room to contact desk . TV was not easily connected so I had to go outside to office for assistance. Beds were fine.

Clean room, very spacious. We appreciated the kitchenette. It is right on a busy road which you can hear clearly until pretty late. Beds were comfortable. The tub plumbing looked as though it needed some work. Didn’t try the pool, though they said it was heated. Very convenient location

Shower was awesome and staff were very courteous. Beds were a lil firm but not horrible. A mat outside shower would be highly recommended due to a tendency of the tile floor getting slippery when wet.

This stay offers old Florida charm and plenty of space in the living and sleeping areas. The bed was comfortable and the shower water was warm as needed. While on the older side, the room was updated to about the extent it can be and offered a pleasant stay.
