Palmetto Beachfront Hotel, a By the Sea Resort
Definitely outdated and smelled kind of funny. Fine for a one night stay but wouldn’t have stayed longer than that.

Chateau Beachfront Hotel, A By The Sea Resort
Room was clean for the most part. Our sheets were kinda gritty tho like leftover sand or something. The people in the front desk placed my cousin in a unfinished room as well..but he got moved thanks to maintenance/housekeeping man standing on business!

Beachside Resort Panama City Beach
Pros: The views were beautiful and the staff was very friendly! And my room was very clean. Cons: I was on the third floor, and you only got a private balcony on the fourth floor on up. And could hear doors slamming from neighboring rooms constantly
