A short stay
1. upon check in after requesting a king bed we first of all received a room that was a handicap with two queen beds. 2. returning to the front desk I was told there were no King bedrooms left. I explained our request through hotels.com he pondered through the computer for a little bit and then tells me they have a king bed. 3. upon check in there are small issues with the room mix-match tiles like they use leftover supplies and unfinished remodeling in the bathroom and the sink area. 4. The TV does not work at present still waiting for somebody to come up and attempt to fix that issue. 5. after check-in and settling in our room the fire alarm goes off Don't know why we received no phone calls to evacuate and we stayed in our room waiting for instructions for about 15 minutes listening to the annoying fire alarm. have not been informed as to why it went off but it finally stopped. 6. your hotels ice machine is out of order there should always be a backup for this this is uncalled for however they did stick small ice makers in the room. 7. their website does not show a variance of rooms other than a king, king suite, double queen, double rooms which are not double rooms this is a partition between the beds. there is a street side and a inner base side. on the inner bay side if you're upstairs you have a good view. 8. as showering in this hotel the caulking is coming out of the joints. 9. okay wanted to jump in the jacuzzi and the pool The pool is a bit on the chilly

The Ice machine was broken, the fan in the bathroom was not working, the floor was to stick and the AC is old, noise and didn't cool enough. . The only good thing about this place was the young men, who welcomed us at the front desk. He was very polite.

First room had flying and crawling bugs coming in through a gap in the door they were everywhere. The room was clean but the floor was very dull which made it look dirty. We had a choice to switch to two other rooms both were newer looking than the one we had but both had insects. Since it was about 12:30 at night we just took a room, but will Never Stay there again.

This was perfect for our quick family getaway! We enjoyed relaxing at the hot tub and pool. Great seating area with plenty of space. Room was exceptionally clean and stocked and even had a small ice maker so no need to leave the room! There's a little deck out back perfect for watching the sunset over the marsh and see the train go by. The trolley welcome center is walking distance next door so you are able to get around town easily. We will stay again for sure!
