I stayed here the end of October. I just missed Fantasy Fest by a couple of days, was there for Halloween and the first couple of days of the Meeting of the Minds (Jimmy Buffet fan club) annual convention. This hotel is convenient to everything. Just a couple blocks from Sloppy Joe's and 2 blocks the other way to Margarittaville. It is about 4 or 5 blocks from Mallory Square, where all the cruise ships come in. The Staff is very friendly and the rooms are great as well.
