Not very clean, ok.
The system had a glitch and let the staff book my room to another guest.
I had a fantastic stay! The room was spotless, the staff were incredibly friendly. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for your next travel adventure.
Amazing location for Everglades and other local attractions. Large clean rooms, great pool area, friendly and helpful staff, perfect to start a road trip to the Keys
The employees was nice. Made me feel like I was at home. The one who stood at the most is the lady at the front desk who book my room very nice. I wish I remember her name because I would like to get her a shout out.
The service is excellent but the room is not in a good condition. Very simple and not so comfort.

Disliked: Staff & service
Unusually rude staff that is serving breakfast. Went there around 9:00 for breakfast that lasts until 10:00. They were out of all main items that make breakfast: out of eggs and sausage, out of waffle dough and out of milk for cereal. Well when I found the person who is in charge of the area she clearly was annoyed about the ask is she could refill the items. It is not what she said but how she said it, the tone and facial expression.
Room was “OK” but the whole area smells like Raid insect spray.
This place got excellent reviews and so thats why I chose it over the Fairfield and Holiday. Its not a terrible place, but I wouldn't give it excellent. Breakfast was just the ordinary hotel breakfast, nothing great. Towels had makeup stains. Floors were dirty. It was fine for a couple of nights.
I’ve stayed here twice and would stay again. Convenient location for starting out to the Keys or South Everglades. Property is very clean & satisfactory. I did have a problem with the guest laundry machine, these things are frustrating but the staff got it working for me.
