Booked this hotel on hotels.com and when I got there my room wasn’t even available when online it said booked. Then the guy said we have no rooms for a whole month so I had to drive around for 40 mins looking for somewhere else to stay

GOOD PRICE FOR A GOOD ROOM
I did not have high hopes for this Motel but it was actually not a bad stay. The first room they gave us was a smoking room but they switched us when we mentioned it. They also allowed us to change from 1 king to 2 doubles since plans changed and we had to bring our kids with us. the room was clean, no sign of insects and the bathroom was remodeled. US 1 is close but it wasn't obnoxiously loud. The a/c worked great as did the fridge and microwave.

Then bed had bugs, called manager Sarjay Ppatel showed the bugs and my bites. he stated " that they were palmatto bugs and that this was Fla." He then came back with the police we showed them the bugs.I requested another rm. he stated "They were full". did not get much sleep after that. had requested a 06 wake up call didn't get it and didn't need it. When I checked out @ 07 went right to walmart brought bed bug spray and sparyed everything down .My night there was VERY BAD.. fal

I don't recommend this hotel
We couldn't find rooms in other Hotels, all sold out but because the price of the room was similar than the other hotels in the area we decided to stay there, almost $230.00 USD, another customer showed up and they charged him $175.00 , the air conditioning was so loud that we couldn't sleep. I can't recommend this hotel, it needs some upgrades before charging that much money, it overpriced
Wall outlets
Lamp condition all rusted
Door handle came off and we had to find the screw on the floor to open the door

Very nice surprise.
My son and I were going South. We arrived too late and needed a place to sleep for the night. We were able to make reservations and arrive very late (1am). We were welcomed with a smile. The room was like new. LOVE the shower. It was much larger than usual. Our room had new tile and paint. Bedding was crisp and clean. It was a much better stay than expected. This place is a hidden gem.

Great night at small quiet hotel!!
For a smaller hotel it was actually ok - staff very pleasant- they were quick in responding to our questions- bed was very comfortable- clean establishment inside & out. We wish we had rebooked this room instead of going elsewhere!!!

Room and service was what I expected it to be. Overall clean and decent but definitely not worth it. Upon arrival at 8:30 pm there was no one attending the front desk, there is a bell you can ring but it didnt really matter seeing how no one answered. I waited for 20 mins before calling the number and then someone came from downstairs. When checking out the next day at 10 am there STILL wasn't anyone at the front. I just left my keys.

Hotel of Horror
From the outside you can tell it's not going to be a 4 or even 2 star place, but once I went in I almost fainted. Stayed just long enough to get on laptop and find a different place. I was uncomfortable even sitting down . The smell of bug spray, and chemicals I guess they used to cover the mold and mildew smell gave me an instant headache, and nausea. I didn't care that I lost my money they truly could not have paid me to stay there. Carpets were black with filth, and you can imagine the rest. DISGUSTING !!!!

Pas d’eau
La Wifi ne fonctionnait pas bien et la cerise sur le gâteau, il n’y avait pas d’eau dans l’hôtel. La gérante nous annonce qu’elle a un problème d’eau mais ne nous propose pas de solution de rechange !!! Finalement on a eu de l’eau à revenir vers 23h !

Jag hade inte höga förväntningar, eftersom det var budjet. Blev glad överraskad för renligheten och rummet med king size bed. Kunde parkera bilen utanför rummet. Fint ställe. Läge är som industriområde, men det finns restauranger och matäffärer i närheten. Rekommenderar.

Das Zimmer schien zuvor an Raucher vermietet worden sein. Zwar nirgends Brandlöcher aber kalter Zigarettenrauch in der Luft. Klima-Anlage funktioniert, ist aber sehr laut. Zur Not übernachten - i.o.
