Average nothing exceptional

Average experience. Property proclaiming they were 100% non smoking place with several signs everywhere, yet as we arrived first experience was a lady sucking on her Virgina Slims at the door. Trashy parents at the pool smoking and vaping too nobody was willing to enforce any of it. The place is rather run down there was no water for about 3 hours one day and some alarm was going off in the lobby constantly.... Ladies at the front desk were nice and we're trying to do the best they could. Overall experience is you get what you pay for this is a place run on a tight budget, don't expect anything at exceptional. Towels were small and old. Room was decent, breakfast was very very processed, didn't touch it. No recycling available.

Couldn't have stayed at a better place as far as location, pool, easy in and out! Staff was always checking the pool and grounds for cleanliness. Our room smelled a little mildewy but realized the hallways are open air so the moisture must be hard to fight. Breakfast has great options. Charged Tesla there nightly. Gator in the pond on property! Bed was uncomfortable but 2 nights we were perfectly fine! Can walk to beach (10 min), restaurants, bars, shops, new playground right next door. Trolley stop on corner.

Hilton Inn HHI

Sets the bar for pet friendly hotel. We’ve come here a few times now and the new renovations have really made it excellent. Breakfast is phenomenal for what it is. Great location to beach and plaza. Will come back every year. Only negative I would say is gym equipment is lacking a little. Still has enough for a workout, but could use some pull up bars/ cable machines/ elliptical etc

Very disappointed with this holiday inn. I have been to many other ones in the past but this was the worst. The toilet could barely flush and we had to shake the handle because it was always running. The carpet was wet because the air conditioner kept leaking water on the ground. The linen and towels were so old that my wife told me these should be used to dry counters not for people. The breakfast is terrible. Omelets were not fully cooked and pancake maker worked once or twice during breakfast. Positives Staff was friendly including check in. Cleaning or room service came by everyday. Lots of parking but you need to pay 10 dollars per night so not free. Easy walking distance to Coligny beach park. Good location and staff but run down hotel. I am going to spend some time apologizing to my wife for choosing this hotel. I won't be going there again but if you like the positives then you could give it a try.

Stay - Two Nights

Door lock on room did not work. Tried new keys and worked once. Front desk clerk thought it was just my family unable to unlock the door. Had to call maintenance after 10 pm to be able to get back into room. Fortunately, another room was available but never received any follow up or apology from the desk clerk. Maintenance guy was very helpful. Never received housekeeping service.
