Hotel was clean, cute and very good location. Only downside, we had a ground floor room that shared a wall with the kitchen. Starting at 5:00am the staff was preparing breakfast and they were very noisy. Kept us up

Great location close to Duval but far enough away so it's quiet. Lovely outdoor/pool space. We really enjoyed the afternoon sangria! Breakfast was good (loved the coconut pancakes!) but our eggs benedict order was forgotten x2 so we just gave up. Our suite was spacious. Bathroom was small and could use some sprucing up.
