Our stay was great. The bedding was very nice. The towels as well, especially the washcloths. They were very nice. I did ask for extra pillows but not available. So I used the pool towels to add volume. Also the indoor pool was great as well . Overall our stay was amazing. Close to nice restaurants and of course the aquarium. Great price.

Comfy motel to meet basic needs for our weekend getaway. Rooms were clean and staff were friendly and professional. Their parking is limited and difficult to look for a spot.
