"Amazing staff and service!"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
We got in on Friday and immediately Jay greeted us. He gave us so much helpful information about events, local spots to check out and made us feel right at home. He also provided our dog with treats and water! During our stay each time we crossed paths he made sure to check in and ask us how we were doing and he remembered our names. He was so kind and we have told so many of our family and friends to stay at Tides so they could have a great experience like we did. Jay made our trip so memorable and we are very thankful.
