Room 11 was a great location! Pool was nice a quiet. Breakfast was phenomenal. Our room was nice but water pressure was poor. Bed was comfortable and pillows great. Our door didn’t shut well. The location was very quiet and felt very safe. Walking distance to some great locations- The Bull on Duval 1 block, conch republic 2 blocks. They DID offer onsite moped parking in the employee parking spot. We had called ahead and were told there was no moped parking close. Also, the held our bags for us before check in. The breakfast staff was incredible. Front desk Craig was a bit inhospitable, especially when it came to the free sangria hour. My husband walked over to get a drink a few minutes before they stopped and Craig cut him off and said NO, and took the pictures. His character seemed very brass and un-relatable no matter how hard we tried.

Incredible location. Walkable to allwater activities, Nightlife and restaurants. Beautiful property and the breakfast was incredible. Healthy options like fresh fruit, overnight oats and chef to make omlets poolside. The only negative was the front desk gentleman was not very friendly or helpful.

The room we were in was directly attached to the kitchen area so it was very noisy starting at 6am every morning. Other than the noise in the morning the stay was fine. I would say it would be nice if the people making breakfast could have been a little quieter in the morning.
