We will definitely stay here again. The location is wonderful! The Cuban restaurant on property is very good. For an older hotel the rooms were good sized. There were 2 sets of windows (older outer windows and newer inner doors) which helped the hotel be quiet at night, even though it was spring break. The staff was also very good.
