The entire property is run down. I think people may be living here by the week/month. Pool area was very uninviting. Hot water is lukewarm and air conditioning is not cold. They asked me for a 50$ deposit in case I break anything....lol

Hotel stay wasn’t bad but not worth $100 a night at all. The beds in the room were very old underneath the bedding and bedding was clean though and we only used one of the beds and it was comfortable enough …There were bugs in the room, gnats, There was a cockroach also. TV had lines in it but still worked but the tv was an older flatscreen and not a smart tv (not that serious anyway) The air conditioner worked, the mini fridge worked too, but the microwave only worked sometimes and gave me trouble… Floors were slippery and grimey when we got into the room (my son slipped) and I told them and then they sent housekeeping to fix it which they did. The pictures I would say we’re not updated and they are older pictures and misleading and they could work on the outside a little since it looks rundown… The pool was OK outside but very outdated and dirty, mostly on one side of the pool, on the deep side. There’s a lot of commotion going on outside all the time & I’m assuming from people who actually live there at the hotel, and there are other people who loiter….other than that it wasn’t too bad to stay at but for the price I would never come to this hotel again and I’d rather pay a little extra and go somewhere nicer and closer to clearwater beach

Not worth what we paid. Very outdated

Needed a place to sleep for our drive back home. For what we paid I was disappointed. Property is very old and everything is low quality. The remote control to our television had the batteries taped in and wouldn’t turn the tv on. I called the front desk and they told me to come get new batteries and if it didn’t work there was nothing he could do and would t switch our room. When your tired and just want to relax w husband and two kids, tv helps a lot! If there’s no tv you’re just sitting in a room with nothing to do but stare at the walls. We received TWO bath towels and two washcloths for four people. Not impressed.

Honestly by the reviews I was expecting MUCH worse... Was there bugs...yes. Did the sheets look super clean... no. Did I feel safe with the black truck sitting right outside our door with people drinking it...no. Did i sleep with one eye open...yes. Don't waste the money, spend the extra $50-$100 and stay at the holiday in, thats what I will be doing next time. The one good thing about this hotel is the distance to Baycare Ballpark, otherwise 1/10 rating for me.
