    A light pole has fallen in the parking lot and has been there for at least 3 months. It was there at my previous stay and still there last week, Hot breakfast was not available due to an issue with the oven. We still had a continental breakfast but not quite the same. The room darkening shade was not functional in the room or bathroom. I wasn't sure how much was visible from the outside looking in. Nothing was really bad, just not up to my usual expectations of this property.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Only cold breakfast available. 24 hour coffee ran out ar 8:30pm. 24 hour pool and gym only open 8am-9pm. Room was clean and comfortable. Staff was good. Tuesday night check in staff was polite and apologetic about inconvenience. Breakfast attendant was excellent.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Breakfast on the weekend ended way too early and the oven was broken so no hot food.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    The stay was great except for no hot food for breakfast. The oven was broken options were slim.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Front check in was great- Molly. The the lady caring for and maintaining the breakfast was so kind! Breakfast was great!

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Breakfast was limited. And the AC was quite loud.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Room was clean and comfortable. Pool was nice and refreshing in the extreme heat.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    The hotel is ideally located around lots of good restaurants. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the room was clean and comfortable. I would return.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    It was okay. The tub in my room wouldn't drain the water from the shower and the room keys for the locked side doors did not work. Probably wouldn't stay at this location again but it wasn't horrible.

    It took a while to write this review for the hotel we stayed in. My complain is the toilet. There were two yellow stains on the bottom of the two sides of the toilet. I know it’s peer. It means nobody cleans the toilet properly. So disgusting! No matter you are happy or not to see my review. I must tell you what I saw. IHG is a famous chain company. I do wish you can develop better. Good luck!

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    It was vacation I did not need to hear the breakfast attendant carrying on slamming things around about how it’s Monday and someone didn’t do there job I was so happy to get a room there but that made me angry I have been in food service all my life and owned and managed restaurants she would have been written up or fired if I would have heard that especially in front of customers

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    This was a pleasant stay. Thank you.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Breakfast was great. Staff was friendly and helpful.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Everything was good but nothing exceptional.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    First room was still “dirty” from the previous stay. I notified the front desk and was put in another room. This one was much better. The bed was made, the bathroom was clean!

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    The hotel is older, very clean. There needs to be a lot of updates done, furniture was very worn out, but the bed was very comfortable. The staff was very helpful and friendly, we were confused about coming back to our room and finding the cleaning staff had been in and left clean towels but only made 1 bed lol. Will we stay there again, most likely not.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Wonderful stay! Close to so many amazing attractions & beaches. Staff super helpful & friendly. Breakfast great with even gluten free options. Pool was so warm. Beds and pillows comfy. Clean! Would definitely stay here again.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    I did not like the breakfast which was not good quality. It needs much improvement with more variety and better taste.
