3.5-4 stars. We booked this hotel as an "only option" when we evacuated Florida for Irma. It had a room available, and the price was right.
The building from the outside is nice, but once you step inside you can tell it is a bit old. The first room we were put in smelled terribly of cigarette smoke, and that wouldn't do with our 8 month old. I called the front desk and they put us into another room without hesitation, which was much better. I was put off by the mugginess and temperature of the room, but once I turned the air on it was much better.
The pillows and bed are incredibly comfortable. My husband and I have our share of hotel and resort stays, and this would rank in my top 5 for comfort. The complimentary breakfast every morning was a definite bonus, and we took full advantage of it. The lobby has round-the-clock coffee and tea, which was a nice touch. The water was very hot (both from the faucet and Shower), though the pressure was lacking a bit.
Most of the staff was very nice and welcoming. All in all, a good stay. When the price is compared to the quality, it's a great deal.
