We were pleasantly surprised and very pleased with our stay. We were there for 3 days and each day was a pleasant experience. First, each of the front desk staff were friendly, helpful and courteous. Our room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable (the bed was especially comfortable) (I’d like to have that mattress in my home. The breakfast was very good and the restaurant staff were friendly and helpful. I would absolutely recommend this hotel if you’re visiting the Pensacola area.
