Rooms are cleans but needs updating. Needs to replace carpet with LVP, needs new mattress and definitely needs blackout drapes!! Pool was nice and clean, location is good walkable to many restaurants and the broadwalk. Staff was nice and accommodating Would stay again especially if they did the updates mentioned above.
