This was more of a Motel rather than Hotel - outside room entrance - overpriced for what you get - super humid and clammy inside the room due to no weather stripping around the door - the toilet was actually in the shower in the room we had, soooo odd. Onsite restaurant had very limited hours and the dessert menu had only 3 things on it and one was Tiramisu ugh. The staff was very friendly - check-in was smooth. Owners need to reinvest some of the $$$ they are overcharging to buy some paint and do general maintenance. First and last time I will book here.

Staff was very friendly. Joel was great on check in and out. Not a hotel but more of a motel but we felt it was nice and comfortable. We had to walk up stairs which for older people might not be ok but maybe a first floor room would be available. We were 2 couples 80 and 72.

The property is quite old with little to no updates. It sits between a very busy and dangerous highway with a train track in the rear, yes the train goes by in the wee hours of the morning and wakes you. However its proximity to the local attractions is excellent. There are several fast food & breakfast restaurants across the street but you have to be really careful crossing the street, vey careful.

This hotel worked fine for a few nights. It’s definitely a motel not a hotel. In a convenient location, clean and staff was friendly. The beds were comfy and room was a good size. The bar didn’t open on first night due to someone not showing up which was disappointing. Otherwise, a pleasant stay for the price.

Great place to stay

The room was very clean and the staff was very accommodating. We had a room on the backside with a beautiful view. There is a train track on the back so some might not enjoy the backside rooms. I was fine with the train. There is a small table and chairs to sit outside if you want. The attached restaurant has great Cuban food. Lots of things to see and do within a couple of miles. I would definitely stay there again.

It was close to a lot of attractions and restaurants. The housekeepers did a good job cleaning and replacing towels and coffeethat were used up..The bathroom fan did not work, no hot water in the sink. For all that monwe paid there was nothing complimentary, no breakfast no nothing. Might as well we stayed at a local hotel. It was mot what we expected on getting there, it needs a lot of renovation.
