Top hotels in Northwest
Apm Inn and Suite
Nothing like the pictures I saw online. They left a used soap on the back of the toilet. Looks like homeless people were living there. I won’t be back. I hope I get my 50 back soon.

Margaritaville Jacksonville Beach
Hotel was nice, clean and friendly. Check in took a little extra time due to computer issues but the staff worked hard to solve the problem. Bar was great and busy. Required valet parking was a little steep but they let us know in advance and it was efficient.
