Lakeland Hotel Guide - Eastside Village Shopping Center hotels in Lakeland, United States of America.

"Nice cozy one or two person studio apartment. The host was very easy to work with and the apartment was clean, comfy and easy to access. The bed was a little firm for our liking. We appreciated the little things that made us feel welcome. Would definitely recommend this place and would stay there again."

"The property is dated and could use refurbishment and it's underway. Mostly it needs to be brightened up by repainting and the carpet removed and or replaced. However, everything was clean including bedding, floors and furnishings. It was an older Ramada Inn with their older dark colors. My wife and I never felt uncomfortable and would/will stay there in the future. It's location is in an area of low income spread. We read all previous ratings before going there. I can only say it's obvious to us the poor ratings are largely prejudicial for feeling uncomfortable due to it's location within the low income sprawl. I know this because I was raised within a block of the hotel 65 years ago. All said, why spend 3x or 5x the money to stay elsewhere? Frankly it's stupid! There is a high fence around the sides and back of the property with barbed wire that might be intimidating to some people. Some might think it's to keep people from coming onto hotel property. However, a close look reveals the fence has been constructed to prevent people from entering the adjacent business (not residential) properties when they are closed. Refurbishment is underway but slow due to the high cost. All I can say is don't write it off based upon comments by people who tried to take advantage of their policy of allowing a pet. The bad ratings was the result of a renter not disclosing the fact they had more than a dozen dogs that were part of a dog show. "

"I gave this a 5 stars as it was convenient, everything is included in property. Overall property is clean EXCEPT 1 of the bath towels has a stain on it. Have to wonder if its clean or not. I used the towel anyway, but my wife was grossed out. The only other issue was there were a ton of bugs at night. I understand that is normal in FL as I am a native of FL, but owner could provide some sort of bugs repellent. A lot of mosquitos went right inside when we went inside the house. I killed like a dozen of them with a napkin. Otherwise, the property itself is very clean. AC super cold and with remote. Everything is needed for staying. Definitely would stay here again!!"

"It was very clean and comfortable. Thank you!"

"I have no hesitation to stay here again. It was SUPER clean. The owner doesn't skimp and truly tries to make the environment like home. We stay in lots of VRBOs and this place stands above the rest, it shows that the owner cares and keeps the place nice!The layout is great, enough beds and room for our family to spend time with our Lakeland Grandma. The porch is very nice and the foosball/pool table was a center of activity for the kids. The lighting was very nice in the house, including the lighting in the bathrooms. The bathrooms were so well kept and it was so nice to use them!The pictures are not able to show that a person will take one step down into the bunkbed room. It isn't dangerous but I could see if you weren't expecting it and it was dark you may not expect it. My kids loved that room and the beds were a big hit.Oh, the pictures also don't show that the closet space is great in every room! That was a great perk as well! One other note. Our crew had to do cooking each meal because of food allergies. This kitchen was very well equipped and made it a pleasant stay. Gas stove!! A normal size fridge!! New or at least very well kept utensils/cooking tools/pots and pans (other places I have stayed don't keep standards high)...so many things that made it easy to prepare meals. This VRBO was such a blessing to us! Thank you Breeze of the Lakes retreat, you are named well."

"This house has an "at home" feel. It's an older home that's been very well cared for. We were close to shops, restaurants, baseball stadium, etc.The Host was EXCELLENT with communication! Without a doubt, we'd visit here again. "

"We really enjoyed our time in the screen porch overlooking the lake. The area was quiet for the majority of our three week stay. "

"Very nice place. Thinking of returning again!!"

"Everything was as listed and the property was perfect for my purposes."
