Stay was good. The hotel room at which we were placed was a little more noisy than expected but otherwise good. During our visit the pool music beat was noticeable in our room from 10:30 am-9:00 pm

Great pools
The hotel is just a few blocks from the Jet ferry at the edge of the entertainment district. Friendly staff and great pools including a swim up bar and lazy river. We had a great afternoon at the pool.
Room was as expected. It has a refrigerator but no microwave. I could see it gettin noisy on the weekend. Music at the pool all day into the evening but quiet at night.
We would stay there again if we come back to Put In Bay.

DJ played music so loudly from approximately 11:00 until 6:00 pm every day that we were there. it was so loud that the headboards rattled against the walls. Website did not mention this at all. Room was not clean. Hotel has not been updated in some time. No coffee pots in room.

Quiet at night. Daytime, the music is super loud, pool is not for only guests staying at hotel and is not relaxing due to the amount of people. Golf carts rented at this hotel have to be returned by 9pm. First time staying at this hotel, much better options on the island.
