The property was older than I expected from the photos. It was clean, well-lit, attractive, and had plenty of parking. The room was remodeled and contemporary, though the building is older. The staff was friendly. It felt very safe, with excellent lighting all around the property. The soundproofing seemed excellent - we never heard noise from other rooms or outside. The property is attractive, very clean, and well-maintained. The breakfast is advertised as continental, though they had some hot dishes and fresh fruit, too. There are dozens of restaurants of all sorts within minutes of the hotel. We ate well. And, there are many other stores in the area - Publix, Trader Joe's, etc. The homes in the area are nice - making the drive to restaurants more interesting. And the location is convenient. 3 minutes to a beautiful drive around the bay, 10 minutes to the airport and downtown. 40 minutes to Clearwater Beach.
