Could be Improved
The property is in dire need of a remodel. The shower drain was not working. I called the front desk and they stated they would see of maintenance was still available as it was past 9pm. The clerk then hung up the phone and never called us back. We called the from desk again and he stated maintenance had left for the day. He did not immediately ask us if we wanted a new room, we had to suggest it. He then asked 3 times if we had used any of the amenities, we said yes of course. We did try to take a shower. After all that we were moved to a new room. This was a much smaller room with a musty smell. The bed was caving in the middle. At this point we were just too tired to be moved again. The breakfast could offer more options as well.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and have no complaints! The courtyard was beautiful & tranquil, the rooms were spacious with comfy beds, and everyone there was so friendly! We only got to enjoy the evening hospitality one evening because of our schedule, but that was a nice bonus, as was seeing the pool and jacuzzi getting cleaned every morning! I highly recommend staying here! =)

Great getaway
Arrived to find we had been given an upgrade to a king room with a full kitchen and patio shared with one room. Room was recently renovated and clean, bed extremely comfortable. Staff was great, providing helpful restaurant reservations and walking directions to the funk zone, Pershing Park, harbor and beach. Continental breakfast was as advertised. Only negative was that the hotel was farther from the beach and harbor than expected given the name, but still in easy walking distance.
