Reviews for Gilbert's Resort
Review 1:No phone to contact the front desk . Was not told the time for breakfast just hand tickets no book tell you what was avaiable in the area
Review 2:The room was updated
Review 3:Overpriced for the family room of two double beds.The bed slats were falling under the bed. The aircon was roaring like in a wind chamber We were informed that they were renovating, but they should not have released this section of rooms. Although located right near water. The whole place needed a new look.I would not recommend this Motel-Resort.
Review 4:There was no where to park, we had to park on the outside street and get a shuttle back to the hotel. I think that was unfair, the people that were there for the Tiki bar/band should have to park on the street.
Review 5:The room was clean and updated, very pretty.
Review 6:Recently refurbished rooms. Clean tidy and very comfortable. The experience in the Tiki Bar at night was superb. I had a fillet steak which was excellent. My party all enjoyed the food and drink and the kids who served us were respectful and attentive.
Review 7:The a/c in the room sucked ass. The bathroom at the bar is disgusting
Review 8:the tiki bar was great the service left something to be desired. Most of the staff was wonderful however a bad apple can ruin the whole experience
Review 9:The only thing we didn't like was the small beach area .
Review 10:it was the perfect place to crash after being out and about. Room was small but the beds were very comfortable. Nice view and very quite at night . The staff was very friendly. They had a band playing great music and food was ok.
Review 11:A lot of mosquitoes, but with a god repellent you are ok. Tv channels i couldn't change it
Review 12:I loved the bed! The bathroom was clean, modern and comfortable. In general, the hotel al was great
Review 13:Definitely a motel with a tiki bar...not so much a resort. wish the designer's had a woman's perspective. No counter space in bathrooms makes it hard to get ready and no mirror or desk/chair in rooms makes it even harder. Would have liked to have a mirror and extra trash can in room. Ocean view, not so much, but I did see water or boats docked outside our window, good enough. A coffee maker in room would be a nice touch too.
Review 14:The remodeled rooms were very new and clean, food was great. Service was awesome! Love that they allow us to kayak and layout at no additional cost. Thanks for bringing in sand so we have a beach to enjoy! Sunsets are beautiful!
Review 15:Room Did not look like online pics. I regret not taking my oun pics. Food was not good at all soggy bread, mushY had to return the burger. Would have sent back the fish sandwich too but was hungry. The bands sucked. Bad karaoke at best. Pool is in such bad condition it's unsafe for children. Way over priced for quality. It's a shame cause this place is a nice hangout, just for drinks bit not food or stay. Very disapoonted. Will not stay there ever again overnight. Oh and the breakfast was horrible. When I found out it was 10.99 without a voucher I'm like where is the nearest Mc Donalds?
Review 16:The room was clean, sheets smelled of clorox a little too much.
Review 17:Nothing to do when the sun goes down. The general aspect was very untidy although the rooms are excellent. The breakfast was poor quality.
Review 18:The location and the recently refurbished rooms. We had one with a small deck out back which connected to the dock.
Review 19:Rooms recently remodeled, very nice, updated, clean. We came by motorcycle from Key West, so liked the fact everything we wanted to do was in one place. Pool, tiki bar, beach, a couple tents selling Florida souvenirs.
Review 20:It was dirty and disgusting. We had honeymoon suite and jacuzzi was broken, the shower did not have any hot water and they refused to give us any towels except for the 2 small ones in the there. There was an old crappy tv, no phone, no clock, no toiletries. It was stinky and nasty.
Review 21:Nothing
Review 22:The family rooms are not renovated yet. Do not book them.
Review 23:The double room is very good. Very quiet air conditioner, walkout to dock, clean newly renovated rooms
Review 24:The door locks in our building had pass cards and they did not work no matter how many times we had them redone (+ several trips to the office+) a bad system to say the least. Basically we were locked out & held hostage for one to stay in room and the other to seek help. Couldn't enjoy sitting out on the patio in case the door closed and we couldn't get back in without going all the way to the office. Also a Very Poor and Confusing Handwritten Breakfast Sign, basically not sure where or what hours. We missed breakfast Friday on 'Christmas Day' because of the door locks. We were lucky to find breakfast on Islamorada at Huddle House. The back door has only a master key for maids and maintenance, it would have been nice to be able to get a key for that in place of the horror of the front door not working and locking everyone in the building out. Imagine the possibilities of emergencies. We accidentally left our bed pillows when we left Sat morning, We said that we were going to be on the islands the rest of the day and head home that evening, someone could have called us to let us know they were left there just in case we could drop in and get them. We left a message Sunday 27th because we got home around midnight Sat. Josh responded in a timely manner with full instructions to help get them to us. *We travel with our special pillows for our necks and backs".The Shower drains very slowly. The Shower also puddles lots of water on the bathroom floor .We used a lot of towels to mop up water. There are tiles along the bottom edges of the shower, you have to be inside the shower to see, -there is no grout and this may cause serious damage within months. The soap dish holds water because it's leaned towards wall corner...messy messy messy.The maid left the place really clean and nice and offered service very respectfully.
Review 25:The Location, View And Venue Are Amazing. Good Ole Florida Atmosphere that we love. Two employees were particularly proactive with a good attitude and very helpful. Josh in the office and Scott in the Tiki Lounge & Restaurant area. The maintenance men also were very kind and helpful trying to fix the door locks. The maid left things very clean and nice and offered more towels if we needed them. I will like to recommend the Resort, it also has boat docks for someone to stop in for a nice meal... We really like the renovations because they enhjance the integrity of the resort. Best Wishes As You Finish It To Completion.
Review 26:I didn't like leaving!
Review 27:Beautifully renovated rooms make this a terrific boutique hotel. The staff was extremely friendly, the food was fantastic, and the bartenders went out of their way to make this resort special. It's a gorgeous place to stay!
Review 28:little worn down but they are remoddelling this year the staff said. Hope they keep the authentic laid back feel -
Review 29:Awesome laid back feel, great staff, cute place, great food, awesome location!, the little beach was great!The price as well was to my liking :-)
Review 30:The rooms wasn't up to standards but we made tge best of it.
Review 31:My friends and I enjoyed the whole atmosphere it was relaxing,and we also enjoyed the live band music...it was a home away from home.
Review 32:They are getting ready to update/upgrade the rooms. I'm a little hesitant to say this is wonderful yet.
Review 33:Location and environment. Been coming down to the Keys for many, many years. Gilbert's is easy to get to from the mainland.
Review 34:The bathrooms were very dirty. I found 2 cockroaches in the next morning. The little fridge had a strong smell to fish, I was not able to put anything inside. A lot of mosquitos.
Review 35:Quote price wasn't honored. Beds were old and soft, tables on the deck were older than WW2. Pool was shut down by the city. (not safe) Mold in showers,
Review 36:Where it was located
Review 37:It was loud, dirty, unfriendly and not suitable for a family with a young child. We felt bound to our room as the pool was dirty and surrounded by beer bottles and cigarette butts.
Review 38:The room itself regularly went for double the cost that we paid.. So we got a great deal, but just like many Key West hotels that aren't big names, nothing had been renovated for decades ... Sink faucets were old and not easy to use, the shower was peeling all over on the floor, the toilet was old, and the room itself lacked charm. They did put a flat screen but it was way to small to be mounted and too far from the bed. Finally I'm thankful for the breakfast with good coffee but the quality of food and choice were not that great .. Had I paid the price for all this that others had, I would not have been thrilled.
Review 39:Location was awesome and the TIKI bar was popular among locals and tourists alike. The room was right on the large canal with a great view and awesome walkway to sit or fish. The bed was comfy with nice bedding. Its definitely a great location!
Review 40:Pool was full of black algae, the room had mold and overloaded outlets.We change caked out the very next day! They refused to give us anycredit. I called the health department upon leaving and was told thatthe building is scheduled for demolition in just a few short months!!!How can they advertise renovated rooms when it was simply painted over(and I mean bathroom tiles and all!!!) When they have permits to tearit down?! Ruined our entire vacation and were unable to get anotherplace due to prices and vacancy issues being lobster mini season. Donot stay here!!!
Review 41:Bathroom was very very run down, did not feel clean. Needs to be updated and remodeled. Mold forming in the shower and surrounding sink, toilets and in tile floor. Room needs to be deep cleaned and mopped. Overall, just not a clean place. Really is a shame considering how peaceful the place actually is.
Review 42:Air conditioning worked very well, bed was comfortable. Location was great. Very quiet and peaceful place. Friendly staff. Decent food and drinks, price was satisfactory.
Review 43:The insects are fierce at night. Bring insect repellent. At about 7:30 am ony first morning there, there was a bang on the door. The lady asked me if I needed towels. Seriously? I just checked in the night before. I was by myself and had two towels already so there was no need to wake me up. About an hour later, the cleaning ladies woke me up. In defeat, I went to breakfast.
Review 44:I only booked this hotel one night because I found a great last minute deal for the same night. I drove up to the property and fell in love instantly. There was live music playing from the Tiki bar and the area is stunning. I asked if I could stay longer and Sally at the front desk was very accomdating. I love the location and food at the Tiki bar. The staff was very friendly. The vibe is laid back. The breakfast attendant made me a Belgian waffle each day.
Review 45:the room was just run down, awful, paint falling off walls, pealing, the curtains didn't close thy had to come and pin them closed with clothes pins, it was one step up from camping
Review 46:the tiki bars, location, step out on dock your room is right on the water, my husband loved being able to fish off the dock
Review 47:The room was spartan but I expected that. What I didn't expect was how bad the room was. No light in the cramped bathroom.Two electrical plugs in the room. One was over loaded and the other was in the bathroom. There were no wash cloths. Shower was good but the tile needed to updated since I don't think it has ever been remodeled. Curtains were next to transparent. The rooms are a real dive. I would never stay there again. For a few dollars more The Anchorage Hotel just across the water is an outstanding value. The breakfast was very less than ordinary. I was hoping since the new owners have taken over that the rooms would be improved other than the mattresses.Never stay there again.
Review 48:As bad as the rooms are, Gilbert's is one of the best places to party. Gilbert's spend a lot of money on entertainment as they have bands on Saturday and Sunday afternoons plus Friday and Saturday nights. Check their entertainment calendar for the bands playing and other entertainment. Lots do fill up quickly or you can park your boat if you like. Staff is great. Bartenders are just super and make sure you are taken care of.They never stop moving. If you are not into partying then don't go to Gilbert's. Food is fair and not as good as it use to be.
Review 49:I do property maintaince for a living & notice a couple health violations & safety concerns. The location.is nice & the place has potential if it was maintained. Our sink wasn't seal and came off the wall. The toilet wasn't bolted down and rocked when you sat on it. My grandmother and myself fell off the toilet. There was bugs & dirt all over th floor. None of us showered the entire trip bc the shower did not look clean, I guess they tried painting the tile and its destroyed. When asked to switch to another room due to those reasons, I was rudely told they were all booked and my room is not refundable. Unfortunately it rained the entire trip which we made the best of my mother's birthday surprise trip but we spent most the trip in the room uncomfortable, grossed out. I took pictures for proof.
Review 50:I was told the back patio would be only ours, end up sharing it with the neighbors who smoked... I have asthma, two people who quit smoking & my 74 year old Grandmom who gets sick off smoke with me. The view was Nice when the drunks were not in the way. Definitely a party spot.
Review 51:They have left the hotel to run down and walls are driven, have mold, floors are old and look dirty but are not. stairways need to be swept. For over 150 a night the place is not worth it.
Review 52:Shower really needs updating, breakfast was just OK, and the TIKI bar wasn't nearly as good as everybody else says.
Review 53:Clean, nice view, good deal for the price.
Review 54:The shower tiles had been painted over and the paint was peeling badly. Also, there was no hot water to take a shower with. We let the water run for 25-30 minutes and had to take cold showers.
Review 55:The resort is in a good central location for travel to the keys.
Review 56:Person at front desk when checking In could have been more friendly. Didn't offer us our breakfast vouchers. Had to go back and ask for them.
Review 57:Fun place great scenery
Review 58:Needs update, needs parking for Motel guest, needs to hire a person to patrol the property so people don't use the property as a garbage dump.
Review 59:Loved the location of the Motel. Great TiKi Bar and the rooms are right on the water if your on the first floor. The negative things are: Rooms (Bathroom) needs to be up dated, parking, during the weekend you are lucky if you find a parking spot even if you are staying at the Motel. In the morning, the parking lot is full of litter. With all this said, I would stay at this Motel again but only on a weekday.
Review 60:I didn't like that we found a dead cockroach & one huge live one that rushed under my husband's legs on the bed. I didn't like that people were fishing till the wee hours of the morning & were very loud. Our room was on ground level & our balcony is connected to the rooms next to us. They were very loud & my kids, husband & I were all trying to sleep:(
Review 61:It was a cozy place & staff was accommodating.
Review 62:The room was dark, door covered with kids crayon marks, plastic matress protectors (my biggest hate), plumbing .... hmmmm...toilet flow wouldn't stop and no water in sink when we got up. Says recently redecorated, would love to know when
Review 63:Casual family spot and good for young groups
Review 64:Room was filthy and needed many repairs. Shared waterfront patio with other room that was occupied by at least 15 people that took over the whole area! To top it off sewage line got backed up and flooded half our room!
Review 65:Tiki bar. Needed strong drink!
Review 66:Some guests were leaving garbage around their decks and staff would not bring it to their attention. T.V.'s are too small and rooms need up-keeping (painting, new faucets, etc.)
Review 67:Able to fish right off the marina, live music every day. Mattresses were in good condition and comfortable.
Review 68:Bathroom/shower was filthy and needs updated. Not that we needed it, but TV is an old tube type. Food was expensive and mediocre at best. For what we paid, this should have been a much nicer/cleaner room!
Review 69:Great location.
Review 70:Room was old, no phone, no kleenex, no washcloths, no hand towels, no microwave, no coffee pot. Door to bathroom was warped, holes and markers on all doors. Charge for room was applied to credit car before arrival. Bathroom was awful. This room charge was unacceptable for what was there.
Review 71:Tiki bar and view of gulf.
Review 72:The bed was full of ants. We rented 2 rooms and they didnt want to refund the money. We couldnt spend the night due to the ants infectation. We had to drive back home at 11:00pm .Tania was rude. Also, guest were very trashy.
Review 73:The location is great.
Review 74:The only minus is the old style interior, definitely needs updating, especially the bathrooms. Cleaningless also wasn't top notch, we found hair on our toilet and some "stuff" on the matress skirt which was grosse.
Review 75:I loved the location, and the fact this place is around water. We got a great deal on the room and were happy with our choice. Great laid back atmosphere, good food, good service and drinks.
Review 76:Bathroom was horrible and their were buckets in the room where the ceiling leaked.
Review 77:The tiki bar was fun place. The property had a party vibe and good location.
Review 78:The room was worse then we expected. No wash cloths or hand towels, ripped screens. Gross
Review 79:The restaurant was great. TV's were full of sports and the band was excellent.
Review 80:Painted tile in the batroom was peeling. Deadbolt on for didn't lock. When asking about repairing it we were basically told to lock the door knob and hang the "do not disturb" sign on it. Needs some TLC could be very nice if updates were made.
Review 81:Location was good, tiki bar with bands was nice.
Review 82:Bathroom would benefit from a revamp but it was clean and functioning
Review 83:Literally on the beach and with affordable kayak/jet ski rentals. Very nice tiki bar and nice food menu too
Review 84:the condition of the rooms are horrible, dirty, moldy, the bathroom is in bad condition. Furniture is old and broken. For the price it's not worth it. Nice location, fun atmosphere outside but the rooms need to be renovated.
Review 85:People on the deck outside our room drunk and loud with stereo even tho they have a 10pm quiet time.
Review 86:Nice tiki bar and restaurant. Tue. and Wed. 2 lobster tails for 17 bucks, can't beat it. Dolphins swimming outside our room. You can fish from the deck outside your room.
Review 87:Front desk clerk apathetic, no clock or phone in room, very little beach area, despite the photo in the hotel description. No parking, not even for registered guests. Very loud and super crowded the entire weekend. Random boats dock right outside your room, blocking the view. The place was a madhouse Saturday and Sunday, and we couldn't park anywhere. When we asked about guest parking, they were totally unconcerned. The resort was packed with locals and bikers all weekend, and the management seems more interested in the weekend parties than hotel guests. The desk clerk was nearly militant about guest rules, and failed to smile even once. We didn't feel welcome here, and will probably not go back.
Review 88:The hotel is very easy to access, close to Key Largo shopping and dining, and the room was clean. The place feels very old Florida, the ground floor rooms have a deck right on the water, and the restaurant/bar was very good, if a little pricey. If you are young and/or looking for a party spot or a spring break feel, this is the resort for you. If you want to relax and unwind in a low key Florida Keys beach resort, this is absolutely NOT THE PLACE!
Review 89:The inside of the hotel room was half remodeled. They had new furniture however the beds were pushed up against the wall and the window so you only had access to one side of each bed. The floors could have been cleaned better. The bathroom needs a total remodel. The sink was painted along with the tile soap dish and glass holder, there were burn marks all over the sink. The shower stall was gross and needed to be changed all together.
Review 90:We could enjoy a private beach. There was plenty of tables at the restaurant-bar area right next to the beach to just relax at whether we ate or not. We were also able to fish off the docks and actually caught about a dozen fish.
Review 91:Did not like the paint peeling off the bathroom tiles. No microwave. Was not happy with the extremely thin curtains; Felt a bit exposed.
Review 92:Clean room. white sheets and well made beds. Clean floors. A modern a/c that didn't blow air on your bed. Watching the boats from the second floor. Saturday rock & roll band; they were great.
Review 93:Couldn't access the WIFI. Ants on the nightstand and floor. Spiders in the ceiling corner. Air conditioner was duct taped together and not adjustable due to broken knob.
Review 94:Breakfast was good.
Review 95:When I made the reservation, It was for 4 adults and 2 children. When we arrived the booking was for 2 adults and 4 children. Its a good thing we brought a blow-up mattress or we would not have had a place for the children to sleep!!
Review 96:The staff was nice!!
Review 97:Not a bad experience but would be greatly improved with upgraded bathrooms & shower.
Review 98:Local character; bar and grounds were really nice, and staff super friendly.
Review 99:The bathroom was in a very lousy condition, dirty and paint peeling off the walls. The room is very old and in need of extensive repair including a coat of paint.
Review 100:The location.
Review 101:Openings around doors and windows allowed mosquitos to bite us all night. Killed dozen before we tried to sleep. Staff doesn't respond to your needs in any way. .
Review 102:great tiki bar
Review 103:Rooms need work, no place to hang or put anything in the bathroom, toilet paper holder was gone hated the wet toilet paper no matter where we put it, overall clean but yuck!
Review 104:Everything was there, beach, bar, pool, view, ammenties.
Review 105:Continental breakfast was not so hot but free! No hair dryer or iron in room;(
Review 106:I was extremely concerned with all the bad reviews BUT was pleasantly surprised when arrived! Located on great property just off the highway, on a big channel, beach, boat & kayak rental, out door tiki bar/restaurant which has live bands, etc. Yes, there are some things run down but they are new owners who are working on it! New beds were great!
Review 107:The shower was broken tile everywhere and dirty. The toilet didn't flush. You walked out of your room and the air smelled like sewage. The flat screen tv got one channel which was tourist info, and smaller than my computer screen. If we weren't so tired after driving all day we would not have stayed there
Review 108:The beds were comfortable, but the room was pretty sad.
Review 109:Rooms are out if date. The bathroom especially needs to be re-done. Wifi is not a good connection.
Review 110:Has a nice private beach, tiki bar and restaurant. Downstairs rooms have a back porch and walk out to the pier. Beds are comfy and continental breakfast provided.
Review 111:Bathroom desparately needs an upgrade, and cleaning of room is not thorough. Don't let this put you off though, as this place has character
Review 112:location by water, and Tiki bar
Review 113:The refrigerator, shower, walls, floor & window covered with card board. Needs immediate replacement. They are terrible and all paint peeling. I refused to use that shower.
Review 114:Location of resort and comfort of beds.
Review 115:Very, very barren room with absolutely NO color. Sink handle fell off immediately. Shower stall was very, very narrow. Outside deck was in terrible condition. NO literature in room AT ALL!
Review 116:Great view of waterway!
Review 117:No hot water in shower. No wifi. No manager available at 9 am next am to discuss. No wash clothes. Shower is not as good as a military barracks.
Review 118:Outside environment. Got $20 from front desk for inconveniences
Review 119:Paid $200 for a room (308) that we couldn't sleep in due to very noisy A/C units outside door. Complained at checkout and called to talked to manager several times with no response. Not a good situation or value.
Review 120:Nice atmosphere and food...
Review 121:The rooms were run down and the bathrooms were nasty. There were no washcloths or hand towels and I would not take a shower because it looked so nasty!! If the beds were not halfway decent, we would not have stayed. I told the staff when we checked out that the place needed to be bulldozed!!
Review 122:The Tiki Bar was Ok and the small beach was good to see the sunset.
Review 123:The room wasnt clean...it was neat but dust under beds and behind furniture....the linens were dingy though appeared clean. The mattress was very comfortable but no closet and the tv the size of a computer monitor. The bathroom wad like a bathhouse shower stall and toilet. If the price was cut by half then it would be worth it. But sitting right beside a marina walking around smelled awful but it really wasnt the fish that was smelling it was the 30 plus overflowing garbage cans causing the stench. This could be a nice place with minimal investment. Pai t thw grafiti covered room doors and paint!
Review 124:The tiki bar and lounge and the beach were GREAT!
Review 125:No coffee maker or microwave. Bathroom was very old with rust stains on the wall. Broken glass in one window.
Review 126:Docks and boats just outside room, beautiful location. Bed comfortable.
Review 127:They turned off the power at about 1:00 am. How do I know they turned off the power? Because all the light right outside my door in the parking lot were still on. I must have a CPAP to breath in my sleep. The CPAP needs electricity to operate, thus I got no sleep after 1:00 am! I paid for a full night but only got a half night. Also there was no phone in the room, thus I couldn't call the front desk. The little perks were not their. No coffee in the room No Kleenex in the room. Minimal towels in the room.
Review 128:The restaurant & the entertainment were great. The location with my room being right on the water was great.
Review 129:the room was literally falling apart, paint peeling off the shower, sort of fixed ceiling, and the furniture was a disaster.
Review 130:the bed was extremely comfortable
Review 131:The bathroom was awful, dirty there was coke lines cut on the bathroom sink, and beer bottles had been opened there as well. It was not clean and I didn't shower the 3 days I was there. It was more of a biker bar instead of a family resort. Puke outside of the room, they didn't reserve parking for people who were staying with them so we had to park under the freeway. We also BOTH got food poisoning from the burger meat. My husband threw up about 6 hours after we ate and only the food and I was sick the whole next afternoon and night. We also paid extra for a private patio... That we ended up sharing with the room next to us and the view looked out onto someone's boat instead of the water.
Review 132:The staff was amazing! And the drinks were also good. The hotel room itself was decent
Review 133:The furnishings were caveman 1950s modern: two twin beds, but no table or chair; two large chests-of-drawers, but no closet. Since I was alone, the extra bed became my "closet". The air conditioner had no heating unit, so the room got a bit chilly overnight as temperatures outside dipped into the mid-50s. Half the lights in the room didn't work, and I had no clue how to access Wi-Fi (if it was actually available as advertised). Gilbert's was a convenient but primitive alternative to the mid-priced chain where I usually stay on business trips. Such a hotel was about five miles away, but the price per night there was more than double. I put up with the inconveniences to save money. It was OK and could have been a lot worse.
Review 134:The mattress was very comfortable. I liked the deck and dock behind the motel, with a view across the channel where a dolphin was cavorting at sunset one evening -- a good place to unwind after a long work day.
Review 135:VERY POOR 1ST IMPRESSION TWO HOURS LATE GETTING ROOMS UNDERSTAFFED ROMM NOT CLEAN FLOORS DIRTY NO CLOTHS TO WASH WITH SMALL TOWELS TO DRY WITH OVER PRICED FOOD FOR WHAT YOU GET PATIOS IN NEED OF REPAIR DECKS AND TABLES IN POOR REPAIR WILL NOT BE BACK
Review 136:This place doesn't deserve to call themselves a Resort! What an insult! I would have been more comfortable staying at a homeless shelter! And that would be 10 steps up from Gilbert's!
Review 137:Nothing!
Review 138:No wifi. No TV. Both broken No music was allowed after 23.00pm but the bar next door, 30 ft away continued county-party until midnight. Drunk people smashing bearbottles on street. Balcony full of garbage NO-ZONE, do NOT stay here !!
Review 139:location
Review 140:hotel building was not up to any code in North America! room has a rusty fridge, graffiti on the inside doors, back door bolt was stuck shut, shower was gross, noisy a/c unit, windows had plastic bags stuffed in them to seal out the air. The cleaning staff was very nice, however. We were told there was new management, so there might be improvements soon. But the building seriously needs to be knocked down and rebuilt.
Review 141:Location relaxed atmosphere bar & restaurant on site great live music pool (when it was open) free refills on the coffee or tea at breakfast (which was not included by the way)
