Owner was very nice. Room and hotel is need of a remodel. Room floor looked fairly new and bed was firm with clean sheets. The bottom of the bathroom door coming off and the tub and tile needed work. I did find a dead cockroach in the room but did not see any others during my stay. The TV remote was covered in a black sticky substance. I put it in a sandwich bag before I used it. The breakfast offered the basics, but the only hot food was toast and frozen waffles you out in a toaster. Basically, the hotel is old and needs renovated.

Staff was very friendly. The property is definitely older, which was a bit surprising at first, but our balcony room ended up being very enjoyable. We played music all night and, since it’s an older property, the walls were surprisingly soundproof. The room itself was clean and comfortable.

The location of this property is excellent. Across the street from a supermarket and walking distance to a art museum and a few fast food options, short drive to downtown and the beaches; Everything else leaves much to be desired. The property could use an update and remodel, basically good for a night or 2

Publix was across the street which made getting drinks and food without ubering it and a Taco Bell next door for those drunk munchies. Rooms were a little run down and bathroom small but you get what you pay for. Overall, it’s a place to sleep because we were out for the whole day and night.

The highlight was the friendly staff and pool area. Dont have high expectations for the price but the exterior of the building is better than the very very old and in places dirty interior of halls and rooms. Bathroom door had dirty hand marks on inside so cleaning questionable….beds were clean and comfortable though…

The hotel is across from Publix which I used after checking in and before leaving. I was working a craft festival so I look for budget friendly. I would pay a little more next time to get a more updated hotel. The hotel was clean as it can be for being dated and worn. Felt safe, bed was clean so it worked for me.

The hotel is in need of renovations. The room was fine. The location was in a convenient location. I’m noticing that so many hotels are price gouging that why we chose this hotel because it was not too overpriced.

Other than the lady in the front desk, it was very rude at first, but she had to warm up to me. The bathrooms are all clean very well however the rooms are dated, and the floors are tile which proves an issue when moving around, barefoot

I've stayed at this motel a few times over the years. It is old and has not been updated in a long time, but the family that owns it is friendly, and the service is good. The price is very competitive for something close to downtown and the beach. The bedding and pillows aren't great, the towels are atrocious, and there is only bar soap in the badly outdated bathrooms, but the bed was comfortable and the shower worked. If you're just looking for a reasonably priced place to crash for one night, it's not terrible.
