Its cheap so you get what you pay for. They are doing renivations. The staff are nice and friendly
This is an old run down hotel that is scary. Several sketchy people hanging around outside the rooms at all hours making all kinds of noise. Every morning our room would fill up with marijuana smoke from outside. The room is just that one open with no door to the toilet. Room was not that clean and had no blanket or comforter on the bed only the top sheet. No soap or shampoo in the room either. TV did not work as well as the wi-fi did not work.
The sheets were clean that is the only positive thing I can say about the hotel.
The lady that checked me in was great & as I was traveling on a motor-scooter allowed my to bring my bike close to the room. This is an amazing hotel for an even better price. Near the ocean, area is a bit sketchy but didn’t have any issues as a single woman. I love that it has the old-Florida vacation vibe (high-end hotels have their perks, but I’d rather have a laid back- simple Florida hotel any day.
I booked my room online. The hotel called 2 hours later and said they were overbooked, and that i had to call expedia to cancel and get refunded. Expedia told me it was a non refundable booking. I went to the hotel and asked for a refund. They refused. I was charged for an unavailable room, on christmas eve.

Overall, the stay at this property was fine. If I had to nitpick, I'd say the parking was limited, there was no bar soap provided in the room, there was no iron/ironing board, and both the body wash and shampoo in the shower dispenser looked to be the same.
This is a budget hotel, but the front desk lady Rena made you feel so welcome and like you were staying with family. We'll be back!

Great little old school hotel.
If you are into cheaper rates, easy access to places, not so uptight and more low-key comfortable hotels then this is the place to stay. This is old school hotel (I personal enjoy hotels more like this). The staff is friendly especially the manager, she was fantastic woman. You are walking distance to liquor store, a coffee shop and one of the better bars in PCB (The Salty Goat). The beach is literally across the street. The only thing I recommend is bring a coffee maker if you are someone that drinks coffee before 7 am.
You get what you pay for. Location and front office lady was the two good things. Other than that you just get a bed to sleep and a bathroom to take showers. That's all
Small room. No phone, coffee pot, cups, bath cloths in room had to go to front desk and beg for bath cloths and blanket for bed. Bathroom didnt have a door! Front door had a 2 inch gap under it. Tv in 2 of our 3 rooms did not work. Pictures did not match motel, description said cafe and bar in resort, it did have a bar but nobody working it as it was just an abandoned bar and no food offered for sale. Very dissatisfied with rooms and service in general. Will never book at this motel again!
For the price it was exactly what was expected. Older rooms, poor upkeep. It was clean, the outside area behind the fence was super cute. The location was great and the beds were comfortable.
