Nice stay, free laundry and a place to grill out. Pool was small but nice. Full kitch in my room was nice. Elevator was broke so we had to haul up to the 3rd floor which was annoying. Should have gotta discount for that. Sold 10+ minute drive to Pensacola Beach.

The hotel rooms are spacious with full kitchen (appliances, dishes, utensils, etc.) and good size bathroom. Staff was helpful when we had minor issues like needing towels. I enjoy being in rooms without carpet flooring, so that was a plus for me. About a 15 minute drive from the beach. I would stay here again!

Hotel was decent, rooms were clean but a bit small. The area wasn't the best but plenty of food options close by. I don't know if I would stay there again but you could do worse.

I was coming out from an ICU discharge for 5 broken ribs and when we got to the hotel there was no elevator and he put us in the highest floor. After discussing the situation he put us in the 2nd floor which was better but not good enough given the high level of pain. Many trips up and down for my 70 year old husband to get our things in and out of the room. That is the ONLY reason for my 3 stars.
