Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. While the location was ideal for exploring Freeport and the surroundings, with plenty of dining options nearby, the room had some issues that made me uneasy with my small children. The service was friendly, but there were drawbacks like overflowing garbage bins. The dining experience left much to be desired, but the facilities were satisfactory.
I found the hotel to be ideally located for my stay, convenient to Freeport and the freeway, although there was some noise due to its proximity to the interstate. The service was exceptional, with staff attending to my needs promptly. The dining options were decent, but there were some limitations. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few minor drawbacks.
I was pleasantly surprised by the well-appointed and very clean rooms at the hotel, although the noise from the nearby interstate was a bit disruptive at night. The service was friendly and helpful, but there were some oversights in restocking food items. The location was convenient, within walking distance to the retail areas of Freeport. The dining experience was decent, offering a typical hotel breakfast. The facilities were adequate but nothing exceptional.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were huge and very clean, but unfortunately, they had a view of the only peak in the hotel roof and the shower head was covered in mold. The cleanliness was great, but the temperature control was challenging, and the WiFi was poor. Additionally, the breakfast was subpar, leading me to opt for outside options in the mornings.
