"Old hotel, but still clean and very convenient location to the fishing pier. Decent breakfast, no hot proteins though. Waffles, eggs, breads, pastries. Pool was working fine. Good parking. Will be back primarily for the location to go fish."

10/10 Excellent
"This has been the best hotel stay ever. We had 2 rooms for a family of 7. Rooms were great, loved the balcony view. The restaurant on site were delicious as well as the great beverages. Staff was amazing! The fitness room was clean and wonderful as well. This hotel is directly across from the gulf so you have Gulf access. As well as bikes are available for guests to use. A small walk to the trolley stop to venture around the Seawall."
