"Comfy stay"

10.0

I stayed up there with my girlfriend as a weekend getaway for her birthday. It's perfect to stay at if you want to go to Kelly's Island (the ferry was only a couple miles away) Overall the staff was very friendly and the room was bigger then I thought it would be. King bed was definitely a plus. Only thing was they sent me over an email saying I had to get a parking pass, but that's only valid during the "On season" (Memorial Day-Labor day) So I didn't need to worry about it. Overall will gladly stay again.

Service at the desk was great. Floors in rooms need a serious scrubbing. Grounds need some TLC.

"Deffinitely not what I expected, antiquated hotel with parking issues. Great staff though."

6.0

I did like that it was near the water and I was able to take a walk down there. The staff were very nice and accomodating.

There was not enough parking for hotel guests. (the parking lot had about 12 parking spots with one designated for the beauty shop in another building) Street parking was at a minimum and small lots to park were 1-2 blocks away. They had an event there with community people the second evening I stayed and there were golf carts everywhere making parking and driving the streets very difficult. They never came in the room to make the bed, take out trash or replentish soap, shampoo or clean the bathroom floor or tub (which had no mat or tubrunners making the tub very slippery). The room for the price was extreemly small, smaller than my own bedroom at home. TV was on the side wall instead of across from bed, so to watch it easier I had to reposition the chair to face the Tv and then there wasn't alot of leg room between the bed and chair. Due to smallness of room the door on the closet hit the bed and it would not open all the way. It should either open the other way for easier access or be taken off entirely. The hotel is old and has not been updated, and there were 3 stains on my carpet, cracked tile on the floor and ungrouted tile in the bathtub area in the bathroom. A hole between the air conditioner and window block out material allowed bugs to get in the room. For a 'resort' it was antiquated with very little amenities, and not what I expected. The streets were very narrow with many stop signs, one-way streets and pot holes.

My twin sister also purchased a room but her shower had black mold in the caulking. She had to come to my room to take a shower. She googled black mold and spores can be released from the caulking. The front desk said that the hotel was booked and could not move her to another room and had to wait for management to see if they could give her a discount.
