the room we were given was not handicap friendly. the pool outside our door was out of order. the step into the room was hard to manage with my walker. The girl at check-in was not very friendly and seemed bothered. Nowhere in the room for a handicap person to sit. Brought a chair in from the pool.

several suggestions impovement

I would strongly advise installing safety bars in the shower as it is very slippery and I almost slipped and fell several times...nothing to hold on to. A better handle on the cockroach situation as well as we killed 4 of them in our room for a 5 day stay.

This was a great place to stay especially for the price! Clean and comfortable. A bit of a walk to get to Mallory Square and the end of Duval, but we enjoyed the exercise. Plenty of places close by and the property has a bar. Ice machines weren’t really working so that was the only bummer. Staff was super friendly and helpful!
