it was not clear why music in the bar has to play rap until midnight even after it was empty after 10pm. I’d recommend less f-ing and more romance style. also cold and hot water were plumbed incorrectly causing unusual refreshing shower experience. the place is under construction but nothing can beat FMB beach and sunsets even tiny bitty gnats

This property is a party hotel - not our vibe. Newly remodeled and reopened recently (the plastic was still on the lampshades in our room). LOVED the beach view, but not pleasant to sit on the balcony due to either sand tractors at 7am or loud music til 5p, and later on Fri and Sat. That was not our scene when we were in college, and certainly isn’t now. The room was nice, but lack of hot water was supremely disappointing. When we inquired, we were told to “let the water run for 20 minutes”. Seriously? What a waste. We wanted to watch football on Christmas day on Netflix, which we were assured they had. Nope. A call to the front desk did no good. We were happy to not be in the room much, but so s disappointed to not be able to enjoy the balcony as much. Note to selves: won’t stay here again.

First time staying. It was a very nice, renovated room. Front desk gal upon arriving was very nice, helpful and friendly. View from our room was amazing. Only complaint was, we didnt have hot water our 3 days there, even after letting it run for 30 minutes, maintenance man did come, but said it was because no one was there and its an old boiler and it takes a long time to get up to 4th floor, only 4th and 5th floor were open and renovated, also Music was really loud and played until after midnight on Friday and Saturday night. When checking out the young gal on the phone was booking an room with another customer and there was an older woman that cheched us out that was a bit rude, never asked us how our stay was and never gave us or offered a receipt. She acted as if we were interupting her morning. Over all it was a good experience.

Great hotel!
Great stay! The hotel was in a great location right on the beach and walking distance to so many things. Everyone was so nice and I was pleasantly surprised by the food and beverage prices. It was much more affordable than I thought it was going to be. All the food we had there was really good too.

Great Beach! All staff from front desk, housekeeping, bartenders were great and friendly. Quite a bit of the restaurants however were closed down due to the slow season is what we were told. The Sundeck restaurant had a waiter that brought me the wrong salad and completely forgot my drink. After that happened we just asked for boxes to take our food back to the room. The waiter was busy but didn't want to stick around for bad service. This place has a great location and is in walking distance to some shopping and other restaurants. We rented a car and went to Sanibel and Captiva Islands to check them out since they are close. Overall I'd recommend this place, mostly due to the location.

Bass drum by night. Trash truck by day
Well it was my mother, brother, sister in law and myself that stayed there. We were literally right above the bar that had a band every night until midnight. I have stayed here before and never had a problem. I was so disappointed. Not only were we kept up until midnight but at 6:30 in the morning we also had the privilege of having the trash truck come with their back up beeper going off like an alarm! When we checked out I mentioned to them of my displeasure with the stay and that it would have been nice to know when we checked in exactly where our room was and that it would be that noisy. I got a deer on the headlight look and that was it! This was a trip for my mom’s 80th birthday. How disappointing
