I give all props and credit to the housekeeper’s and the front lady working the desk on Wednesday, May 20, 2025. I was having problems with a booking and she was so patient and kind to walk me through it, and in my opinion, she not only needs to be recognized, but it needs a raise too! Thank you guys so much!

Smelly room

The hotel has a different name. My reservation wasn't in their system even though I made it 5 weeks in advance. The room smelled of mold and had cigarette burns on every piece of furniture...and it was supposed to be a non-smoking room!

Small, dirty, roach infested.

The room was dirty, the bathroom floor was cracked and warped, no toilet paper and roaches everywhere. When I voiced my complaints I was basically ignored... I wouldn't stay here again even if it was free.

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities

rooms are fine. neighboorhood is ehh

the rooms weren't all that bad as far as catching a disease or anything, but a lot of the rooms were under construction and were vacant. the bathroom was ruff and the bed sheets were wet but over all bed and room was as expected if not alittle better then I was anticipating. the room phone didn't work which bothered me because if I needed to call to the front desk about the drug deal that was going on outside my room next to my Harley was really bothering me and I wanted to complain. also the service for the hotel was poor and things like taping over the old managers name plaque and writing your own in sharpie is utmost professionalism and makes it seem like your at a very legitimate establishment. I did survive and thankfully I didn't come out to a bike on cinder blocks with parts missing. overall the rooms are fairly okay considering the price. they just need to hire nighttime security, or place a glock where the fire extinguishers should be for potential jackings that may occur. the hotel was the closest and affordable to the venue I was going to at the mid florida credit union amphitheater which made it very convenient.
