Atmosphere was nice and very comfortable.
Air conditioner wasn't working properly.

It was a great place to stay and children were friendly which is definitely a plus for me. We will stay here again as well as recommend it to others.

Room furnishings were clean, tasteful, and very attractive. Plenty of storage and seating.
Our room was right next door to the housekeeping storage room.

Great staff. Nice lobby and bar areas. We can't wait to return in the warm months and make use of the pools and saunas.

Best room service food, since I stayed at Four Season's in Philadelphia.
Room was a little below 4-star level. Not by much, but noticeable.

GREAT location, friendly staff. They didn't try and gouge you to valet park. Extremely accommodating.

Easy check in/check out.
Hotel bathroom smelled bad, hotel did not correct problem.

The overall appearance of the hotel was nice. The bedding and towels were plush and comfortable. The staff did not go out of their way to make us feel welcome or wanted. We had a problem with a smell in the bathroom (smelled like sewage) and the front desk person didn't let me finish explaining the problem and transferred me to housekeeping voicemail. I left a message, but the problem was never resolved. The bathroom floor was not clean. We asked to borrow a luggage cart and were told that a bell boy had to escort the cart at all times. ...read more

Our room had a great view of the Gulf and the pool.
Could have had a room in area without view.

Our room was on the top floor of the new section of the hotel. It had a great view and in the good location. Room was LARGE and clean. Staff was nice. Close to restaurants and bars. Across the street from the beach/seawall.

Great room with nice amenities.
Getting a fridge costs $10 a night. Heater/air conditioning unit was a window mounted one and so was noisy.

Very nice hotel room with nice amenities like robes already stocked. Very clean and comfortable with feather pillows and comforter. Nice balcony units. Only downside is the window mounted air conditioning/heating unit that made too much noise.
