We had to switch rooms because toilet was broken. Next room the toilet hummed all night keeping is awake. The shower head leaked. The toilet barely flushed. Thought it was going to overflow everytime Iit was used. There was mold over on the ceiling and walls by the shower. Pillows were were very flat. Had to leave and return to checkout because no one was at the desk. Hand towels were damp in room

Never again
We waited 1 1/2 hours for the person working the front desk to show up for work and check us in. When she was called she said she would be there in 20 minutes and that turned into 40 minutes with every excuse.

I liked the price as it was cheaper than the hotel that we usually stay at. What I did not like was all of the hidden fees that you are hit with if you take a boat. Then to top it off you have to pay another amount to be able to park your boat. This should be listed on the site as well.

For the price, this hotel was ok. It felt like a fisherman’s hotel but we only needed a place to stay for one night. Very satisfactory.

The property views and location are fabulous. The price is right for the conditions you get. If you like the finer things this isn't for you but if you don't mind outdated, it's cool. The bed was very good which was great.

The location of this property can't be beat. It was very clean and the staff was great. The on-site restaurant, Waterside Social, was amazing. Our only complaint is lack of maintenance. We were in the second floor and our balcony was a tetanus event waiting to happen. There were rusty nails coming out from the side walls from a by gone screen enclosure. The cable wires were strung willy nilly. These things would cost ZERO dollars to address. It's merely a lack of attention to detail.

The place is terribly run down. I heard the person behind the counter say that they are tearing it down next year. Not soon enough! Probably one of the worst hotels I've ever stayed in and I've traveled around the world.
