Very friendly had the room prepped and cleaned fast. I was impressed with it for its stated hotel class even if it's been around a while it is very nice and the staff are quite friendly.

4/10 Fair

Room was clean but the white sheets had visible stains on them. The towels were very dingy in material and the color was stained.

2/10 Poor

Dirty sheets with food still stuck to them with the replacement sheets given to us also being dirty, roaches on in the cabinets and drawers, broken lights, backed up toilet, etc. Pretty bad customer service with some people and just a general lack of effort or care from the staff. Only book this place if you are desperate for a place and even then it still isn't worth the price

⭐☆☆☆☆ – “An Authentic Time-Travel Experience to 1983 (But With Mold)” If you’ve ever wondered what it would feel like to sleep inside a damp sponge while being slowly steamed like a dumpling, this hotel has you covered. From the moment we walked in, the place had that special “abandoned Florida roadside motel meets science experiment” aroma. I believe the scent profile was equal parts mildew, old carpet, and broken dreams. Pretty sure the mold in the room has its own homeowners association. The AC unit deserves special recognition. It ran all night with the enthusiasm of a tired hamster on a wheel, yet somehow managed to turn the room into a humid terrarium. I’m fairly certain if I had stayed one more night, ferns would have started growing from the nightstand. Now let’s talk about the linens. The sheets, towels, and washcloths were all a fascinating shade I like to call “historically gray.” Not white. Not beige. Just… the color of a long life full of questionable decisions. The stains added a fun “guess the origin story” game before bedtime. The bed felt like it had survived several hurricanes and possibly the Clinton administration. Between the humidity and the mattress, sleeping felt less like resting and more like being marinated overnight. Overall, if you’re looking for: • A mold appreciation retreat • A humidity simulation chamber • Linens with mysterious backstories …then this is absolutely the place.
