Daily breakfast offered. Waffles were a hit, bagels were great. Other hot items, not so much. Great place to stay convenient location to all we did. Cute horse theme! Nice pool and outdoor area! Sat for a few hours looking at the waterfall.

Property is well maintained and was surprisingly better on the inside than what shows on the outside. Driving by, my kids said "sketchy" but once we were settled, everyone was comfortable. Pool was clean and furniture was cushy & nice aside from one ripped cushion. Grounds were clean, room was fine, sleep was fine, breakfast was very bread standard but also fine. Nothing exceptional except we did stay in the Jr spa suite so we paid for the exceptional shower. The room was made up like lovers lane. It was a nice surprise. Staff was all super friendly and helpful. We would stay here again.

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.

The room itself had some updates and front desk staff were friendly. The motel didnt feel safe we noticed 2 men walking between cars everytime we left our room. Bed was uncomfortable, tv didnt work, phone didn't work we used our cell phone to contact front desk. We were woke off and on until 5 am due to noise outside our door and guest above us sound like they were working on the room above us . We asked for a hr later check out and the maid stil came to our room 10 mins after the checkout time which we were given additional hour before checkout.. the maid wasn't friendly at all she seemed to have attitude. Overall we were unhappy with the stay and definitely wouldn't recommend this motel to anyone.
