Well worth the money. Only downfall was consistently stained linen. We requested our stained comforters and covers and they were replaced with more stained linen with bloody spots. O would have also liked to have been offered a mid-stay cleaning. We had to go down and request a broom to get all the sand out off the floor.

It was a very nice place to stay, amenities were great and so were the employees. I gave a 3 star review because after renting and paying them for the whole weekend stay they charged me 10.00 a night to park in the hotel parking lot that I just rented a room at for the whole weekend. I did not feel that was right.
