okay for overnight

I stayed at this hotel prior to my deparure home. Room was fine. The hotel is right off a major highway so there is traffic noise. Air conditioning unit was extraordinarily loud. I wouldn't stay there for any length of time.

rate room

The room was very bad. The beds were very hard. they only gave you a cover sheet and a dirty breadspread, that I did not want on top of me. I slept in a few clothes to stay warm and keep the breadspread off me.

Hojo Ocala

Hotel was easy to find, and had lots to offer. The pool looked great and had a hot tub, looked like a fun place to meet people as it was busy. Also there was a 'mini golf' course, extremely basic but fun if you're young. Hotel room had been entirly disinfected when I arrived ( I could smell it), and as a previous hotel room inspector, I could not find any prints, hairs or other scuzzys.
