We arrived early and was pleased to be able to check in. Check in was fast and pleasant. We quickly noticed our balcony door wouldn't open.Whithin 10 minutes maintenance arrived and replaced the door handle. Overfront view was perfect. While hotel may be older hotel our room was very clean and we had a great stay. Upon checking out I left my sunglasses and the nice woman cleaning our room came out before we left and returned them. This hotel will be our go to whenever visiting Daytona. Plenty of restaurants close by

This hotel has been our “go to” place since 2020. Anywhere from last minute overnight stays to family weekend getaways. I have to admit, this hotel has since gone down hill. The staff are just as friendly as the previous employees, however, the rooms and property have taken a turn for the worse. It was once a lively place to be, but I saw maybe 15 people in the last 4 days. We were told that since 2020, the property has been sold twice! Unfortunately, we have decided that this will be our last stay going forward unless something changes.

Breakfast was good but could be a little better. Rooms were in need of alot of work. This was the worst that El Caribe has been since I've been coming over the last 20 + yrs. New owners need to step up and bring life back into a place that used to be nice.

The elevator stopped working less than an hour after we arrived and was not repaired until the next day. Our room was on the 6th floor, and there was no information provided about the situation, nor were we offered to move to another room. My husband has health problems, and we had to go up and down the stairs several times.

Never going back again

Poor conditions for the room. Rust and what appeared to be mold in the bathroom. Rusted locking mechanism for back door. Back door didn’t secure properly. Bed frame felt broken and sunk in. Paint peeling from ceilings. Just an overall poor condition room. The “breakfast” was just cereal and prepackaged snack cakes.
