It is pretty much exactly as advertised. It was clean and quiet. About 500 feet from the beach and tons of shops and tourist spots. The value for the price is very good - we paid just shy of $40 per night ($65 per night after taxes and fees).
Here is the rub...who would I recommend this to? I would say students looking for a spot to call home base while they are out all night having fun.
My wife and I enjoy a little luxury with our venue. We schedule naps into our vacations to ensure we get some rest and return to work like we actually had a break (it's so easy to get caught up doing stuff). This venue did not have "luxury". It was comfortable(ish) - too hot. I felt safe. It was perfectly fine...but I would not return just because I want something a little nicer when I'm on holiday.
For the price - totally worth it! I didn't expect luxury so I wasn't disappointed (this holiday was last minute and spontaneous).
The only real criticism I have is that the A/C unit was not turned on the day of our arrival. It was Florida in July. It took until the next morning for the A/C unit to cool the room to a reasonable temperature. We spent the first night sweating - no sleep. As this is an easy issue to fix, I would hope it isn't a problem for future guests. Although I do recall reading negative criticism about the heat and the A/C unit.
The A/C unit couldn't really keep the room cool during the peak temp times of the day. Normally not an issue of you are out sightseeing; but if you are scheduling a nap it is too hot. It was definitely an insulation issue - the windows. If we closed the bathroom door the A/C unit could get the main room several degrees cooler; which means it felt like using a sauna to go to the bathroom.
I rate 3 stars because it's just not a very nice spot. I would not want to hang out here.
