Had a few bugs in my room that I had to kill. Found a dead one on the floor in the morning. dirty walls and gross baseboards in the bathroom. Sticky and musty. Just uncomfortable and I’ve had a better experience here in the past.

This was a wonderful place to stay. We stayed here our first night in Florida and our last night. The rooms were exceptionally clean. The floors were tile which I like better than carpet. The bathroom shower was walk-in with a beautiful stone floor. The sink area had two large copper bowls, and very nice faucets. The room’s decor was minimalist. The walls were a soft gray, and one wall was wallpaper with a mural depicting horses. The air conditioning worked well. The breakfast that was included was nice. I had a bagel and sausage. My husband had eggs and sausage and toast. It was a typical hotel type hot breakfast. All doors opened to the outside and had a welcome mat at each door. The pool area looked nice and there was a covered area near the pool, but since we were only there one night, we did not use any of these amenities. With our room keys, they gave us a TV Guide and passwords to the Wi-Fi. They also mentioned that they had quiet hours from 10 PM to 6 AM and everyone there seem to adhere to this policy. The staff was very accommodating. Parking was right outside your room and there seem to be ample parking for all rooms. These accommodations were a terrific value for the Room rate. We will definitely stay there the next time we come to Ocala.

This is a clean, comfortable place to stay. It is an older hotel that is kept up as far as being modern. Property is nice with heated pool and places to sit comfortably. Decent breakfast options in the morning. The only complaint we have is that the WiFi is not reliable, constantly losing it and very slow.
