Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were reasonably priced and nice, overlooking the water, comfortable, quiet, and I could order room service from Plank's, which is one of my favorite St Joe restaurants. However, I was expecting a 'golf course view' that I didn't get.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with spacious and nicely decorated rooms, though there were some late-night disturbances from other guests. The service was excellent, with staff being accommodating and kind, even receptive to feedback. The location was nearly perfect, close to the marina and downtown St Joseph, but the noise from the nearby ice maker was a downside. The dining experience was a mix of amazing and disappointing at Planks, and facilities were satisfactory overall.
The Super 8s hotel is a decent choice for a winter getaway weekend. The rooms feature nice and clean showers, but lack soundproofing which can be bothersome at times. The service, highlighted by the helpful actions like opening the gift shop in the middle of the night, was truly impeccable. However, the location, though convenient for business in the St Joseph area, has drawbacks with excessive mosquitoes and being surrounded by highways. The dining experience was underwhelming with limited offerings, although the gyu-don dishes were enjoyable.
