This place was great. A bit of an older motel but the housekeeper, Theresa,is fantastic! She even found us more pillows! The sauna was not working when we were there but the hot tub and pool were great. Perfect for a getaway to Tarpon Springs.

A 60's vibe permeates and makes you feel like a cozy stay. We didn't use the pool but it looked delightful. Our room was very nice, super clean. Bed was comfy and places to eat were close by. Our room had a seating are to relax, separated by a half wall from the rest of the room.

Location is conveniently close to Tarpon Springs downtown and sponge docks so price was reasonable. Front desk staff were cordial and accommodating. A drawback is there are no elevators. We were assigned a room on the second floor but were able to change it to the ground level so we didn’t have to haul several large suitcases up the stairs. Room was comfortably large with a small kitchenette area.

We had a one night stay and the location of the Inn was convenient for us. But I wouldn’t stay there again. It was dated and not super clean. There were dust bunnies under the bed. Also there wasn’t any way to lock the second dead bolt from the outside.
