"Comfortable stay. Room was clean and bathroom clean too. Breakfast was great! Only complaint, as such, was that bottled water (Dasani) cost $4.00 a bottle and if we had bought a case of 24 bottles it would have cost us $4.29 at Publix!!!! So lesson learnt…next time we will travel with a case of water😁"
