Very simple room for a terrific price. Across the street from large hotel, so short walk to public beach access and maybe 6-7 minutes to the pier. Next door to Pour, an amazing coffee shop. Weak WiFi signal from inside room.

Nice updated room's, dislike having to pay a security deposit for my room and then it takes days to get my deposit back, been 2 days so far and still don't have my deposit back. They can take it instantly out of my account so why does it take a week or longer. Unhappy with that

The room was absolutely disgusting and unsafe. There was mold in the bathroom & some throughout the room. There was trash all in the floor, my socks turned black just from walking around. Our door frame was broken and a hole through it where someone had broke in, in the past (it barley locked if it even did. i’m still not too sure if it fully locked) . There was dust buildup and dirt all on the floors and baseboards. Our lamp shades had some ungodly stains and the room had a horrid stench. Then through all that with picture proof all they would refund me out of $250 was $60 that I STILL haven’t received & probably will not. Also the girl checking us out that morning was rude and argued with me trying to refuse a refund for the nights we wouldn’t stay there. 0/10 do NOT recommend.

Place was ok. Just one sheet no blanket or comforter. Place was more appealing than your average rundown motel overall. Also no soap or shampoo in the shower. Fromt desk lady told me they recently painted them and that is why. Had to walk to a convenient store to buy soap. All in all it was a good bang for the buck.

This is an old run down hotel that is scary. Several sketchy people hanging around outside the rooms at all hours making all kinds of noise. Every morning our room would fill up with marijuana smoke from outside. The room is just that one open with no door to the toilet. Room was not that clean and had no blanket or comforter on the bed only the top sheet. No soap or shampoo in the room either. TV did not work as well as the wi-fi did not work. The sheets were clean that is the only positive thing I can say about the hotel.

The lady that checked me in was great & as I was traveling on a motor-scooter allowed my to bring my bike close to the room. This is an amazing hotel for an even better price. Near the ocean, area is a bit sketchy but didn’t have any issues as a single woman. I love that it has the old-Florida vacation vibe (high-end hotels have their perks, but I’d rather have a laid back- simple Florida hotel any day.

Hair!

Booked the stay in advance. Called the day before to see what the earliest we could check in is and they told us strictly 4 pm. We got a call at 4:58 asking where we were. I explained that we were 16 mins out and we are headed that way. We arrived and went out to eat instantly. Thinking we were at a place with 24/7 front desk I called as soon as we realized there were no blankets on the beds. We had to spend the night with nothing more than a sheet. The shower backed up with water from hair, glass, and what I hope was dirt! The water only had one temperature and that was COLD!! We went to the desk the next morning and explained everything. We were told the room would be cleaned. We left and returned. Still not cleaned, but they brought blankets! I went to the desk and asked for the first night to be refunded. They said they would refund $35 of the stay. Upon check out I had to repeat the whole situation again. Hopefully within 3-7days we will have the $35 refund.

Absolutely DO NOT STAY HERE!

The room looked nothing like the pics, it smelled! The bed was like concrete. There was some other guest drinking in front of our room, one guy even propositioned me in front of my husband, and another guest doing drugs in front of his room, only 3 doors down from ours. All of that was with in 5 to 10 mins of checking in paying and going to see our room. We headed right back to the person at the front desk only to find out he had left, so we didn’t even get the chance to say we weren’t going to stay there, and we had an event we were going to. So through out the night we tried to call the front desk and got no answer. We ended up driving all the way back home instead of going back to the hotel. I would never recommend anyone staying in this hotel.
