Communicating with the young people at the desk was IFFY, at best.
The room rate quoted was $20+ more than the Internet price I had seen, and when I brought this to her attention, all she did was repeat the rate.
I was already there, so............
I requested a handicap friendly room, but was given a normal room.
I wasn't offered a choice between poolside, and non - I was given a poolside room where the music from the pool party was somewhat annoying, but didn't begin until we were already settled in.
Housekeeping hadn't restocked all the towels, and I had to request more.
There was also a dirty towel left on the bathroom floor.
The king sized mattress was beginning to show it's age, and wear and tear.

More responsible and more qualified desk personnel would have eliminated many of the issues.

We got a room facing the marina, so our view was nice. We could hear the band that was playing next door, and we went outside for a while to listen. Our room was also right near the pool and the attached bar. It was noisy until about 11pm, which ordinarily wouldn't have been such a bad thing on a Saturday night, but we needed to wake up at 4am to catch our flight back home. The front desk staff was not aware of the restaurant that was right across the parking lot from them when we asked, nor were they able to offer any suggestions on where to go for dinner. (We did find out that the marina across the lot did have a restaurant and bar, but we discovered that on our own.) The hotel was old, but the rooms were decent. So, the pros were that we had a lovely view of the marina and the room was clean. Another pro for us was that we were only a little over a half hour away from the Tampa airport. The cons were the noise and uninformed hotel staff.

Filthy dirty, ran down, noisy, slamming doors, wreaks of weed. Might have been the place to stay in it's time, but now keep on moving down the road. Didn't feel comfortable here, carpets are so filthy, you will want to leave your shoes on. Locks on outside doors are broken, so I worried about security as well.. Had paid for place sight unseen and by the time we arrived, it was too late to cancel..

As I start to write this, I find myself wishing that I had taken pictures of all the issues. But pictures wouldn’t have captured that overwhelming stench of cigarettes and BO in a room that was supposed to be non-smoking. The sheets and towels smelled like they were laundered in the smoking lounge of a truck stop in Detroit! There was a blood stain on the wall between the door and front window, and another one on the sheets. The carpet somehow felt sticky so we had to leave our shoes on all night. The tv was useless because there was no remote. The bedside alarm clock didn’t work because there was no electrical cord attached to it anymore. The in-room phone didn’t work so we couldn’t even call the front desk to ask for a remote. There was a gob of hair in the shower when we arrived. Don’t go out at night because this place seems to be home to much of west Florida’s indigent population; complete with a steady stream of drunken shouting and cursing. The A/C unit loudly kicked on every 20 minutes and sounded like one of the aforementioned ‘guests’ was trying to kick down the door so we barely slept. As soon as it was light we left to find a safer, less stinky and disgusting place. Upon our departure the person at the front desk (who had the warm personality of an MMA fighter) said that she couldn’t give us a refund of the night that we had paid for, but didn’t use (we paid for two nights but left after one). Please, for the love of God, do yourself and anyone you care about a favor and don’t stay at this place! The pictures and descriptions that they use in their online profile are apparently from a few decades ago when this might have been a less horrible location.

We stayed for most of this past week and really felt welcomed by every staff member. Christine & LaToya helped with little extra requests, even when they were VERY busy. The attached restaurant with wifi and continental breakfast made a great 'extra' space to enjoy during the days - allowing us to get our online work done in peace, with snack or lunch benefits. Tried to stay longer, but they were totally booked ... we see why. Tiki bar and pool out back. Just a nice Florida experience. We will return for sure!

Do not stay here! We were unfamiliar with the area and unfortunately did not check these reviews before booking thru a third party. We arrived after midnight so we took a chance. Husband went in to check in while I waited in the car. Lock your doors! Climbed the disgusting dirty stairwell to find our room. Their was safety tape along the railing which was in dire need of repair. Very dangerous. Room was dirty, smelled like cigarettes and BO. We barley slept as the air conditioner sounded like someone breaking in every 15 minutes. There was a blood stain on the wall! The TV remote was missing, clock, light and phone had no cords! Needless to stay we left ASAP in the morning and found somewhere else to stay for the rest of our trip. This “motel” is obviously home to many. Trust me and do not stay here. The only good thing is that several local people said they hope this place will be forced to renovate or better yet demolish as this area is currently in revitalization mode. We deserve a full refund but the clerk was not willing to discuss.

Well the location is great, at check in Karan at the front desk very friendly and got us to a fabulous room, very clean with a very comfortable bed.
The hotel is old and the halls and elevator will tell that story but inside the room everything was new and smelled clean and was clean.
The lounge in the lobby was fantastic Nick the bartender had a full bar with tables full and a couple large parties and never missed a beat. The beer was cold also had entertainment that was excellent. A nice food menu and what we had was good.
Though our stay was a chilly night there is a real cute tiki bar and a beautiful pool on the canal. Will be planning a summer visit. Not to forget the smiling face at the quick and easy checkout Latoya wished us safe journey and ask us to come back soon.
They do also have some kind of breakfast but all we wanted was coffee and that too was awesome.

I just wanted to recognize three of your employees,Angie,Latoya and Karan ar the front desk that have gone above and beyond their job descriptions while maintaining a smile. They have made us feel welcome and have always took care of our needs,and if they didn't have what we needed,they found a way to do so. They have gone out of their way and really care about the hotel and their jobs. We sure do appreciate all they have done. We will definitely visit again because of the hospitality we were shown, the way the hotel is maintained,the waterfront view,the rooms are beautiful and have great rates and,most of all,our dog sure likes it here,too! Keep up the good work! We highly recommend this hotel.

Shame on me for not reading any reviews from Trip Advisor about this hotel before I booked it through a Delta Airlines travel promotion. Where to start? The lobby is shabby, rundown and dirty, with abrupt and rude staff. I asked where the advertised complimentary breakfast was served, the check in person just snorted and laughed at me, saying “oh we stopped serving breakfast during Covid”. Our “non-smoking room” smelled like a week old ashtray, which prompted me to walk next door to the Publix to buy Lysol and Febreze air freshener. The room had no bathroom door, the sink was cracked and the malfunctioning toilet ran all night long. When we told the front desk person about all of the issues the next morning, she yawned, stretched and said she’d write down all of the items that were broken/ missing.

This hotel is dirty, old, smells like cigarettes everywhere even in the rooms even though they have a sign of no smoking. Bathroom disgusting, the sheets had cigarettes burn 🔥. They have people actually leaving at the hotel and there is trash on the hole ways as well as cigarettes butt. The walls are peeling and its not worth the money.

Answer from ArturoPenny
Indiana17 contributions11 helpful votes
Their check-in time is around 3 PM, but they were very accommodating with us as well. We arrived later than expected. I called ahead and they assured me I need not worry. They do appear to have several "long time guests", almost as residents instead of hotel guests and the parking lots could be very busy. I would stay Marina side if possible, but the long term residents are on both sides.
