    The exterior of this place looks abandoned with unkempt landscaping and ages old broken cement deco from another era. Room was BARELY clean. Bed was okay. Should be in the $69 per night range.

    The rooms are absolutely clean and modern. There are some that have actual kitchenettes, such as a small stove, coffee maker, a small sink, a fridge and a microwave. It is home away from and near all major attractions, great food spots the beach etc. And it is surprisingly quiet. You can hear the traffic. But it is quiet in general no loud noises. Has a pool and security for extra measure. The outside is also very well maintained. Would highly recommend.

    Customer service was excellent! The price was super good. The room was very clean and smelled really nice The bed was so comfortable. There was cameras everywhere. The pool area was lovely and very clean. The location is great! Not from from the beach and very close to so many shopping centers. It was very easy to find and was not that far from the stadium.

    Good location, room was clean, pool was nice. For $125/ night wasn't bad. Property would not allow us to rent a king room with 2 children under 2 that co sleep with us. The Property charged us $150 extra to rent a 2 queen room, which was uncomfortable for us to co sleep in. Based on this i would not recommend this Property.

    I liked the location, the convenience of parking, the staff, and the furniture in the room. It was clean though there were a few bugs. The room was suitable for the location and price. I had to go get an iron because it was not in the room, and I got locked out before checkout. My key suddenly did not work when I went to the car to get something. I was not prepared to be outside. Also, I had to kill a few bugs, which made me nervous about leaving my belongings open in the room.

    It was an older place with older decor but for the price of 83 a night (from expedia) it was a decent choice. It had more space than a hotel room with living/dining area and with a couch. It also had a kitchenette with some older pans and dishes for 2 or 3 people. There many restaurants and fast food places nearby and just a couple miles to Clearwater beach. It wasn't a perfect place but it was very functional for the price and located near alot of stores and food places and the interstate.

    To be fair.. I never checked in. My flight had been diverted so I arrived 2 hours early to drop off luggage and potentially pay for an early check-in. Even though the “open sign” was displayed and I waited 12 minutes- and walked the property-nobody was present. Then I called and no answere. I then returned and did the same 40 minutes later (after falling on their non-painted step) and the same…ghosted! I have pics and a video I’ll post soon.

    If you like a throwback to the 1970s, then this hotel/motel could be perfect for you. The rooms are incredibly dated. The room was clean but just felt old and dirty. The air-conditioning worked. I did not use the pool. The linens were clean and smelled nice but you could tell they haven't been replaced in a while. The shower had good water pressure. But I'll say it again. The room was 90% less in quality than a Marriott or Hilton. I would recommend spending the extra money and staying in a nicer hotel / motel.... but if you're desperate… or just needed a place to shower before heading to the airport for a late flight… As what I used it for…This is your place.

    I had to ask for help to turn on the television, but the desk clerk came right up immediately and fixed it for me. The air conditioner wasn’t on when I entered the room, but it cooled the room quickly. The facilities are simple and clean. I appreciated that my room had a toaster.

    The property was pretty good, but it would’ve been better if the hot water worked in the area where you wash your hands it did work in the shower area so I was able to have warm showers, but the sink dripped a little bit like I had to put like a washcloth on the sink so I wouldn’t hear like the echo but the air conditioning worked and they had a heater in there. They really try hard to make things better when things didn’t work and that’s why I gave the staff five stars because they really put an effort to make things better. I mean I wish there were someone at the desk all night that would’ve been nice too, but other than that, they really made an effort when they were open.

    First of all, the hotel was rated as an 8. NOT EVEN CLOSE! The 'lobby' smelled like someone just cooked their Indian meal plus there is a shrine to 'something' right there. Unsettling!. There was some paint cans and brushes just outside the door. Nasty! I could not stay in the room. It was CREEPY! DO NOT STAY HERE!

    The owner-couple took extraordinary care of me. As a disabled vet, I had to evacuate during Helene and they assisted me with my luggage upon checkin, helped transfer me the next day to another room and were especially kind. The rooms have everything you need including a refrigerator, stove, dinning table, dishes, eating/cooking utentsils and a kitchen sink! A trip to Publix resulted in a substantial savings in food/beverage expenditures. I highly recommend this motel - especially for longer term stays.

    Although the room was large and had a kitchen the furnishings were old and uncomfortable. There was a coffee pot but no coffee. The air conditioning units were loud and the one in the main room didn’t blow very cold. There was an odd smell in the room. There was a TV in the living area that I could not get to work. No TV in the bedroom. Bathroom looked dated and the tub had stains in it. On a positive note the shower had great water pressure. The hotel is centrally located to the Clearwater area.
