Quaint old Florida style motel that’s been updated. Liked that we could pull right up to our room and check in was easy. The beds were decent. There was a fridge and microwave, was hoping for a coffee maker. When we got there around 11pm there was quite a few people out and about but no one was loud or bothersome. You do hear the train go by a few times throughout the night. Overall, was a nice stay and good enough to stay at passing through! Would stay again on our travels.

This was the nicest stay, we’ve ever had. We stayed for 12 straight days. These are the most friendly people we ever met. It was clean there, and quit. We sleeped very well, every night. They are most reasonable with their prices. We’ve stayed at the holiday hotel down the road, for over twice the price. Couldn’t been happier with our stay here . Liked better than any other hotels in starke. Looking for a great place to stay, give them a try. You’ll be glad you did.
