Lovely service and accommodations
Came for our anniversary trip and were greeted with a bottle of champagne!
Loved that we were next door to the pool in the complex. Parking was painless. Receptionist was awesome as was AK the bartender. Our waitress Tammy was a dream.

The hotel was so neat. I loved the vintage look. I also enjoyed the patio area. The parking was a little tricky.

Convenient and friendly
Nice small hotel in walking distance to many wonderful attractions. Restaurant is in the hotel next door, great food and service there. My room was small but sufficient for my purposes. The only outlet I could find to plug in my phone was in the bathroom although there is a USB slot in the bedside lamp. They offer free bottled water in the lobby as well as coffee and tea in the morning. The location is wonderful, it was quiet and the TV and Internet both worked well.

10 Jan 2025
Not worth it!
The door to our room didn’t open nor lock for over a day and they suggested leaving it ajar…until they got new batteries.
The waitstaff was friendly and the food was good. However, requested a refund for a day and they haven’t done that- the “studios suite” was so small you could barely sit on the toilet. The AC was outdated- the bathroom didn’t have a fan and the window didn’t open. After staying at the Hollander and the Avalon, and had fine experiences, I will not be going back.

Hugely overrated hotel
I have no idea how this hotel has such good reviews, the rooms are tiny, the air conditioning is like a jet taking off, the noise from the corridor is worse than any other hotel we have ever stopped at, due to the doors slamming and the hotel allowing large groups of guests who seem to be able to run around the hotel carefree.
