Listen, the room was clean and the receptionist was very nice and friendly. It was a cheap place for one night. Its obviously not the hilton or marriott by any stretch, but it was just enough and the shower worked great.

Our room was definitely worth the price.

Room was clean, big and the bed was really comfy. Bathroom was clean and shower was nice. Close to everything in town. We were only here one night and it served the purpose well. Definitely a solid place for what you pay. I stay in hotels a lot as a seasoned avid traveler and we would stay here again. Same room.

The check-in was great. The woman at the front desk was wonderful!!! The location was good. The refrigerator worked, but the cabinet it was in was filthy. The towels were soft. BUT: The room was promised to be a "Non-Smoking" room, but there were four cigarette burn stains on the bathroom counter. The room smelled like it was well smoked in, but lots of air freshener tried to mask the smell. The sink was horribly cracked. The bed was badly sagging. The microwave was old and a little scary. Of course - you get what you paid for, and with the exception of the smoking issue - it served its purpose.

Just what I was looking for

Unexpected 5 day stay with my 9 year old son. Somewhat dated but clean and convenient. Pool was nice. Clean towels daily brought to the room. Not a lot of amenities on site but several within walking distance.

The rooms were large and clean. Reasonable price. Friendly staff. Andrea greeted us in the lobby upon arrival. Check-in was smooth. Andrea really went Above and beyond to make us feel comfortable answer any questions we had durring our stay. Whenever we say her on the properly, she always has a smile on her face. We made our day to see someone joy helping the guest pride in her job. She’s really an asset to the establishment enter a positive attitude made this the hotel that we will stay at from now on when we are visiting Punta Gorda.

We were extremely tired when we arrived. The room we were given had clearly not been cleaned after the previous guest. The receptionist changed the room only after arguing and raising his voice. The new room we received had bugs, and the hot water system was problematic (cold water came from the hot side and hot water came from the cold side). We were also not sure how clean the beds were. The Wi-Fi did not work at all—we could not connect. The towels may have been washed, but they looked dirty and discolored. We did not expect five-star comfort or luxury, but we did expect a clean room, clean sheets and towels, a polite and helpful staff member, properly running hot water, and a Wi-Fi connection that actually works. After all, we did not stay there for free!

We've stayed here before & understand that it's an older and inexpensive motel. But this time was disappointing. We arrived to check in around 12:30am because we had just finished loading out from a concert we lit up earlier in the evening. When we went to out room the door was wide open. I don't mean unlocked, WIDE OPEN. After checking the room to make sure it was safe from potential intruders we wanted to take a shower but there was no hot water. Even after running the water for several minutes it was still cold. Whoever cleaned the room missed the Blue Moon beer bottle cap that was in the toiletry basket on the vanity. At least the bed was comfortable. When we woke up we tried to get hot water again with no luck. As we were leaving I stopped at the office and told the person at the front desk who seem very unconcerned about it. When we get rooms reserved, for after we provide lighting production, we're not there for a vacation. Just a good night sleep in a safe room and the ability to get cleaned up after a very long day of work. Last time we stayed here was good. This time may make us reconsider the next time.
