Nice, clean, near-new hotel. Granite counters and bathroom, microwave, refrigerator, free wired and wireless internet, good computers and free printer in the lobby. What's not to like? The only disappointment was the "suite" wasn't really much of a suite, per se. We expected a private sleeping area from our kids, but the room is set up more like a sitting... More

We took 5 rooms while on a golf holiday, easy to find, great location, bars and restaurants all within walking distance. World of Beer next door was ideal for an early evening drink. The rooms were first class, very comfortable beds, spotless bathrooms. Breakfast is DIY but fresh and plenty of it. The staff were very helpful especially the lady... More

This hotel was perfect for our family visit. A short ride from the airport, close to restaurants and lots of shopping and the family we were visiting. The rooms were large and comfortable and well equipped. The breakfast was very good, but it's important to get down early. In the late afternoon there were fresh cookies! I will certainly stay...

First - ask to stay in the North Tower. It's newer and is just a bit better than the older-updated rooms to the south. Next, you'll enjoy the variety and cleanliness of the morning breakfast (ends at 9am - so don't miss out). Service is very good. Each time I spoke with staff (at front desk, room service, and the...

Very nice facility. Big plate of cookies waiting for us in the lobby. Had a problem with the locks in the room we were given, got reassigned and found the bathroom door was locked from the inside. Matt from the front desk was quick resolving the problem, which required him making 4 trips to the top floor. Everything is clean... More

My stay was for 11 days, not by choice, son in a dirt bike accident and hotel was very close to the hospital. Upon check in I explained my situation and the staff was wonderful to me. Any thing I needed was just a call to the front desk away. The room was very large with 2 queens, a couch,... More

We stayed here one night, en route to Ft. Lauderdale for a cruise, and liked it so much, we booked for two additional nights on our way home to Texas. From the Chihuly-style chandeliers in the dining room to the self-playing grand piano in the lobby, this is absolutely one of the best Choice Hotel properties we've found. Rooms are... More
