The gentleman who checked us in was nice and accommodating. The room smelled like bacon. The bathtub was gross. The non-stick matt in the bath was coming up and had rust stains. Mildew was around every caulk line. If you love a hard mattress, you will love this bed. I had to arrange every pillow in the room so that I slept on them. (Gives a new meaning to the term pillow top). Breakfast was pretty good though! Close to the beach was a bonus.
Positives: Breakfast was pretty good.
Negatives: Bathtub was disgusting. Bed was as hard as the floor.

Negatives: No hot waters for showers!

We really enjoyed our stay there. They had a good breakfast, rooms were quaint and comfortable. We had a hard time getting fresh towels and one of rooms was not clean. Besides that little slip we did enjoy staying there and would go back again. The service guy at the desk was wonderful and helpful to us.

The first room we were sent to have not been cleaned. The second room we were sent to still have dirty towels hanging on the shower rod and a plastic spoon on the floor that was still there when we left. The ice machine on our floor was out of order. The breakfast was ok-parts of it better than others. It was only a couple of blocks to the beach, so we walked everyday. The bed was very comfortable and the bedding was nice.
Positives: The bedding was nice and the bed was comfortable.
Negatives: The first room we were sent to have not been cleaned. Moved, room still had dirty towels and trash on floor that was never picked up.

Positives: Up to date on decor, very nice for the price.
Negatives: Pool did not have many lounge chairs.

The next time we are in destin we will be staying at this hotel. The rooms were clean. We had plenty of towels, lot of peace and quiet, and the front desk help was wonderful.

Negatives: Everything was wonderful.
Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 28 Jul 2007 rated 9 out of 10.
Customer service was very great, friendly people. Although it was extremely clean the room smelled like and ashtray and I gagged. I was instantly given another room that was non smoking and again extremely neat and clean. Very good hotel, a little high of price to not be beach front but still great location.
Positives: I needed to change rooms because the 1st was smoking; it was very easy to change.
Negatives: The smoking room was unbearable! Not just a little smell, a lot!

Overall experience was very good except for above mentioned curtain problem. I was traveling for business but I did not have to wake up at 6:30-7 am! All I would have needed was curtains that closed to make the stay perfect.
Positives: Great location & staff.
Negatives: The curtains don't close & the sun raised on my side of the hotel-waking me up early every morning.
