Spacious and very clean room, reception staff very friendly when checking in, nice pool area but unfortunately not heated. Breakfast was really nice with waffles, eggs sausages, yoghurt etc. This hotel is excellent value and in a really good location close to the everglades and key west. Few eating places within walking distance.
