We booked another hotel and that company could not find our reservation so we ended up staying at Margaritaville resort. What a great place! Very clean, friendly staff, and just a great experience overall.

Weekend Trip
Quick weekend trip. Location was great. Lots of attractions and restaurants within walking distance. It is an older hotel that has been updated but it was good for a quick getaway.

Hotel is right next to the convention center
The check-in process was very easy and the receptionist was great. As far as cleanliness, I was completely satisfied.
My main frustration was the air conditioner in the room made a terrible noise making it almost impossible to sleep. I didn't contact the office about it because it was about 1 am and we were getting up at 6:15 anyway for checkout. The biggest asset of the hotel for me was that it was literally right across from the convention center where we're attending an event.
