Breakfast was very good but it’s not your everyday stuff. If you have kids with you I don’t think most toddlers would eat much of it. Rooms wear very clean and well kept. Staff was very friendly and helpful. It’s right across from the island which made our trip very enjoyable. I think this would be a safe and family friendly place and great for parents that don’t want to load the kids up every time they need to go somewhere. Bar was also very good and prices are your normal vacation spot prices.

Don’t let the pictures fool you! The hotel seemed to be elegant but it wasn’t. It was a run down hotel with nice furniture. I would only recommend this hotel if you’re looking for a cheaper hotel that is slightly nicer than an average “cheap hotel”.

Very nice property. However, parking is tight and crowded. Cars overwhelm the space. Also, the view out my window was the stairway. Noise from up and down the stairs. I'd say it was one of the worst views in the hotel...was that because I got a really low rate on Expedia...hmmm
