OK for a night or two, good location
We’ve stayed here several times over the last 20 years. Even though it was purchased and “renovated”, it’s really just run down. Walls are super thin. We could hear our neighbors entire basic conversation once we turned our TV off. So many chips and scuff marks on walls and in the dining area. Continental breakfast was probably the worst one I’ve ever had in our family vacation travels. They came to tidy up room and didn’t make beds. I don’t know if this bothers anyone, we’ve never had that experience though.
Customer service checking in/out and the gentleman at the breakfast was great. We only stayed two nights, so it was OK for that.
We enjoy the walk to historic old town. Allows us to see some other shops! Also, there is a small coffee/juice/smoothie bar in the neighborhood behind! Excellent service and coffee!

Location was great as it is close to fountain of youth and other attractions. Other than that the room was not well maintained and honestly the sheets and towels felt dirty. I did not want to walk barefoot in the bathroom or room.

Good but can be better.
The property was located in a nice area with walking distances to activities and restaurants. The front desk ladies were super nice and welcoming. Unfortunately, the rooms outside/inside weren’t kept up properly or just poorly fixed. The room we stayed in the bed was slightly uncomfortable. The tv had poor signal not giving us a chance to watch tv fully without having buffering visuals. The shower has cracked pieces of wall, the water didn’t even get hot along with the water pressure being trash, the sliding door was broken didn’t close fully. The door entrance for the bathroom coming out was cracked and just poorly covered or just didn’t attempt to fix it. I overall am disappointed because it was not my first time staying here, I was here back in 2021 of June double bed rooms were newly renovated and nice looking then any of the rooms now. I’m hoping that they’ll focus on these reviews and fix the single bed rooms in front of office.

Great location but hotel services need some work
I enjoyed the location of the hotel, it was convenient for all the festivities in the area. For the hotel itself, the water pressure needs be fixed in the shower. Poor water flow from the shower head. The free breakfast buffet was generic as it gets. Yes it’s free but not recommended.

Basic, comfortable and a good location
Nice location, rooms were a little rough around the edges but spacious and clean, nice outdoor areas including the ‘old senator’ and breakfast was definitely better than we anticipated. Overall a nice overnight stay…
