3/5
Facilities are lovely and the staff some of the nicest I've met, but damn it's loud at 1am in the morning. Lots of staff were around while it seems people were checking in and playing musical rooms in the small hours, no thought to the people trying to sleep. Unsure as to the safety of the adjoining door, as it kept being tried during the night. Very disconcerting.

Its proximity to Shark Rock Pier and Bayworld makes it a great choice for exploring. The hotel offers essential amenities including free parking, and you can enjoy breakfast with a view from the outdoor terrace. With a lounge, outdoor pool, and bar, it's a comfortable and convenient stay.
