Gulf shores trip

Not bad. Bathrooms are tiny and cramped. Beds were comfy. Doors didn’t work well. And the pancake restaurant in the hotel was trash. Folks charged an additional 5$ for each item ordered because their “prices just went up”

Was very disappointed bc there was no breakfast on Memorial day. For the $500 a night we should have had all amenities avaliable to us. Not pleased at all. Will not go back. I was really looking forward to a pancake at the pancake house.

The hotel was nice, room was accommodating. They would benefit from not having carpet in the rooms as it is older and retained a musty odor for being on the beach. The “wood” like tile would have been nice throughout.

I have been in contact with this property for 3 days to receive a refund I checked in at 4:30 AM by 5:30 AM. The neighbors next to us was playing loud music right beside our door (had a joining door) we ended up checking out at 9 AM because we could not get any sleep at all! Told the front desk about it they said that they would handle it. I called Expedia. They contacted the property and they keep telling us that the manager has to approve a refund yesterday. I called back. They said that the manager will not be in until today they are just literally giving us the runaround… it has always been a good stay, but I hope you do not have any compliance or needing a refund because they will give you the absolute runaround and not care.
