Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very rundown and seedy. The room smelled like stale cigarettes. I had the employee to change the sheets because they looked dirty but even the clean ones were stained. I saw a spot of dried blood on one of the pillows. Squeaky bed. No iron. Patched holes in the walls. I took a shower with the lights off. I guess you get what you pay for. Never again

Adequate, but could be better!

Quiet older motel. Convenient to downtown Ocala. The room was clean as far as what would be daily maid cleaning. The hot was was plentiful, and the room had no smells. Bedding was clean, but pillows were flat. We went to Dollar General for two new pillows to sleep on. The biggest flaws were the dirty doors, trim and the mold around the soap dish in the shower. I think if they added some better pillows, replaced the outdated bedspreads, cleaned up the twisted mess of cords and did a thorough cleaning of the shower it would have scored higher in my opinion. All in all it wasn’t terrible. Just not as nice as it could have been and the doors and trim were so dirty it kind of grossed me out

Staff was friendly this is a hotel just to sleep no amenities. No hair dryer available. It was clean as long as you don’t look behind the furniture or at the bed cover. Shower was newly updated

Very old rundown motel, not worth the price.

I was on my way home to FL from a funeral in NC. I should have stayed closer to the interstate. This hotel is old and in poor condition. There was mold growing on the shower curtain.

This was a classic, old fashioned roadside motel. The grounds were perfectly clean and welcoming. The room was cozy and homey, the shower lovely and hot. I'm deeply grateful that it used an old fashioned room key, not a key card, since I had to go back for an item I'd forgotten, and was able to get back in... I would have liked a coffee maker and cups, but I know that those are items which often disappear. The guest in the room next door came in a bit late and, while I don't think they were being particularly loud, the sound carried. For the price and the distance to my destination, I would definitely stay there again.

This is an awful property. Don’t stay here. The in the wall A/C was so noisy. It is old and run down. The wi-Fi didn’t work. I would not stay here again, even if I had to sleep in my car. They should have paid me to stay here.

Would not stay here again if you paid me.

Needed a place to stay in the middle of the night took forever to get checked in waiting for someone to answer the window. Then looked like he just woke up and was un pleasant. The room stunk there were stains on the sheets. When we left there was not even anyone to check us out just sombody speaking over on ring doorbell telling me to drop the key in the drop box no thank you for the stay or nothing bery unprofessional. Very overpriced especially right after a hurricane where i am sure the prices were hicked up.

A lower cost motel that was safe and clean. Had a refrigerator, microwave and standing shower. Man at the office window was helpful and friendly. I would stay here again when visiting the area!
