Our room was super clean and spacious. However, our experience at the bar was not so great. The bar tender said it was his second night and he had no idea what was going on or what to do. I feel like he needed a bit more training.

You must like a fabuloso floor cleaner smell, they must have poured a whole bottle to clean all the surfaces and thats not good cause that smell is pretty strong. Carpet smells like old airplane carpet. Pillows smelled like a decade of heads have laid there, and soft like a soup. Other than that ok
Staff was great, super friendly, ac worked great, bathroom was clean, everything worked. Would i stay there again? If i find myself there last minute and theres nothing else sure, ill do it again, but not if i plan a vacation ahead of time. My husband loved it, but he is used to things like that and im not

Very disappointing experience. There was no hair dryer provided in the room, and when we contacted the reception to request one, we were told that they did not have any spare hair dryers available. Instead of providing a simple solution, we were asked to change our room to another one. This was very inconvenient and not the level of service expected from a hotel.

It was as a decent stay. Fair warning we walked into a room that was vaped in and terribly hidden by a horrible air freshener. I told the front desk, I wanted to make sure we weren’t charged for it. Pretty easy going staff. Clean, room had a little mold in it which we felt when we woke up. Quiet though if you’re traveling.

1st room they put me in smelled like a locker room and had a stopped up sink. They put me in another room that was a little cleaner. Some clown smoking at the hot tub and some chewing tobacco in the elevator. Trash around the hotel when I left this morning. Expected more at that price point. Staff was very friendly and location is convenient.

Pulling onto the hotel property there was a man standing with an assault weapon in his pants-reported to the front desk the man working insisted the guy was military and stays on the property until I showed him the picture of the guy. We reported the light bulbs to the lamp were all on the floor, room wasn’t cleaned properly, some one left an arm brace on the floor, refrigerator (not cooling), water drained VERY SLOWLY. All of these room issues were reported-I was assured maintenance would come and clean. Still waiting! No one ever came. Not a good experience at all, little details make a huge impact.

Had those little issues been taken care of the experience would have been better.

Could not use the breakfast far this time around due to the recent changes of you either having to use your points or pay $10 per person which is crazy. Room was clean and staff were friendly.

Room was clean and staff was friendly. I was disappointed that it is implied that this is \"close\" to white sand beaches when in reality it was about at least a 20 min drive. Also, there is a 10.99 additional charge for a breakfast that should have been complementary in my opinion.

Overall the room and building was nice, however on the last full day of my stay the toilet broke. The handle broke when I went to use it and the toilet wouldn’t flush at all, it wasn't a big deal at first, I told the morning staff at the front desk between 7am-8am, he said the maintenance man would be in at 11am and he would have him look at it. I returned to the hotel around 4pm and the toilet was not fixed. I notified staff again when I was leaving about the toilet and the lady didn’t seem to care, I returned to the hotel again around 6pm and the toilet was still broke. It was disappointing to have no effort given to resolve this issue, I went through the lobby multiple times and nothing was said to me about the toilet. I don’t believe the maintenance man even looked at the toilet, so he either didn’t care or the staff never informed him. I’m Disappointed in the staff for not making this a priority especially since I gave them all day to fix it. Even if I was given an alternative option for using the restroom at the hotel I would’ve been fine with that, I didn’t even get as much as an apology.

Loud music plays in hallways and from the bar downstairs late into the night. We had to turn on sound machines to drown it out even after we asked the staff to turn it down. The staff were neither friendly nor unfriendly. The hot tub never worked and the pool is in the shade of the building most of the day so it’s cold. There are people smoking outside right at the front entrance and on the back patio though it’s marked no smoking. The room is clean but the rest wasn’t great

New breakfast menu was delightful food was tasty but 1 more attendant helping with water coffee refills and making sure we had everything would have eased the burden off of the primary server. Pool and fitness center was clean and well kept.
A good economical choice and overall just what I needed

We were overwhelmed with the service, staff, food, cleanliness and convenience of this property.
We retreated to Pensacola to avoid the major Ice Storm in North MS.
From the check in experience, through our check out, we were impressed.
A special shout out to Eve in the dining area/lounge—She made us feel like family—She constantly went out of her way to assure we were pleased with the morning and evening dining experiences.
I feel bad that I failed to get the evening chef’s name—Also, a truly remarkable and personable person. He even shared his special dessert that he was testing to add as a signature item for the menu.
The spread for the breakfast bar was far above our expectations as well as the menu choices and quality of the dinner experiences.
Hats off to the entire staff of this hotel—Your hospitality made us feel like we were welcomed and all accommodations were excellent.
Thank You All.

Room was clean. Bed was quite comfortable. Breakfast was not included, $4 per person, marginally worth the $4. Scrambled eggs were burned a bit, the fried potatoes seem like they may have been made last week and were microwaved, bacon was not in strips but piles, only almond milk. Clerk at the front desk when we checked in said they made to order breakfast, there was no way to order breakfast that we were able to find. Hotel was good don't spend for breakfast go to Denny's across the street, $5 Grand slam is better.
