Guest Reviews

• Roy (4/5): - Roaches,even found a piece of a blunt just sitting on the table under the tv, mirror is broke in bathroom. Shower is dark with no lighting. You book on this app for online pricing and this is now the second time they didn’t honor the online booking. They also come knocking on ur door at 9:30 am and tell u 10:30 check out when the papers say 11am checkout. Women told me last time I stayed she would discount my stay next time and didn’t this time. Why are they online for cheaper prices if they won’t honor it. I’ll be staying else where next time.
• Kimberly (2/5): - It was nasty there was roaches and it was just dirty
• Roy (6/5): - There was an issue with the first room so they had to move us to another room
• John (4/5): - The AC was cold, the bathroom dirty, water was hot. Micro wave brokand taped to work
• Luella (10/5): - Everything was awesome! I enjoyed the peaceful, quiet surroundings...I rate the *Prince of Wales Motel a 10+! Luella Julian...
• Luella (10/5): - Everything was 101%.
• Mary (6/5): - Bare minimum basic. Rundown outside, needs a swerping of cigarette butts, etc off the sidewalk. Inside was okay. Checkin was a runaround, from 1 building to another to another. But wifi worked, and it was not noisy.
• Shelly (10/5): - 😁❤️😃👍
• Shelly (10/5): - The lady at front desk is always nice to me
• Shelly (10/5): - I like the location of the motel
• Shelly (10/5): - Nice and friendly
• Shelly (10/5): - Room 13 needs a curtain not a sheet to hang up
• Michael (2/5): - terribly old and dated hotel. no coffee in rooms or available in lobby. very noisy from nearby highway
• LARRY (8/5): - close to downtown
• Elizabeth (4/5): - Microwave didn’t work. Hot water didn’t work Well.
• Shelly (6/5): - It was okay nothing unique
• Shelly (6/5): - The room was clean. The air conditioner need to be cleaned. The curtain on the window has the old hooks and majority of the hooks are missing. The microwave could use cleaning out. The freezer on the mini fridge needs the ice defrosted out. . I have stayed in different rooms here at A Prince of Wales Motel, and this last one I stayed in has been the worst.
• Michael (2/5): Trashy like - No good
• constance (2/5): - Nothing
• Lesedi (10/5): - The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain.
• Lewis (4/5): - So sad how this property has gone down hill broken lamps torn out smoke alarm mold won’t be back
• Robert (2/5): - The person checking us in made us feel like completely unwelcome jerks. The room was tiny, most of the TV channels were blocked, thee bathroom door squeaked, the beds were hard, the toilet paper roll was missing and the wifi didn't work. The bedsheets smelled like detergent in a bad way and the sheets were stained up. When we got as settled as we could we went outside to look around at the grassy courtyard in the back and the check in lady pounced on us out of nowhere and yelled to stay out of there "it's our property!". Ok, if you don't want people going there maybe put a sign? It's not like we happen a fence, there's a path leading back there. I was taken aback by her anger and said fine, I just need the wifi password. She practically screamed that it was on our receipt and stormed off. Through some trial and error I found it, it's the phone number for the motel, with no indication that it is a password. I'm so sorry this woman has to deal with guests while running a motel. Absolutely terrible. I might recommend this place to my enemies.
• Richard (8/5): - Room was very clean but on the small and older style.
• Jeffrey (2/5): - Needs to be closed
• Paul (6/5): Implausible reason for inoperable shower - Shower inoperable. When i called front desk, was give lame excuse that water was off from town. I informed the clearly new employee that the sink and toilet water were working, but was told same story. I finally suggested they give me key for next room, where I showered and returned key.
• ALEJO (8/5): - The place is good for the price. Good for rest
• Justin (2/5): - Coach roach in the room when I checked in. Went to take a shower the handles were a nightmare, packed up my bag and left and went to stay somewhere else. It was difficult getting checked in and was not worth the hassle of trying to get my money back and explain everything that was wrong.
• Edwin (4/5): - I was kicked out with my son from the room after I asked nicely if I could wait 15 mins for my husband to arrive.
• Richard (6/5): Good place for the money. - Good place for the money. A bit small and worn but I would stay there again.
• John (6/5): Clean but a bit down on its heals - Wi fi was so slow I used my cell service - tv was stuck on a single channel “drape” over window looked like a brownish sheet. Bath towels were thin and sheets were a brown color (not dirty just the color).
• Verified traveler (6/5): - A-C unit noisy. The rest was acceptable considering the price.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Mosquitoes - Parking was in front of the room but the road noise was terrible. Also AC unit was not secured to the wall and had a gap for bugs to crawl in. Definitely received a few mosquito bites there.
• Jay (10/5): - Perfectly fine
• jeff (6/5): - This is an old property. It has had some improvements: new TV, new refrigerator (ice cold), microwave works, but you have to unplug the refrigerator to use it, or unplug the tv. Stains on the one bed comforter, stains on the lamp shades, holes in the walls stuffed with toilet paper????? The shower sprayer is newer, but the hot and cold spigot knobs are 1970-ish, and are partially stripped. The shower window won’t lock completely either. I will say, there were NO BUG, which is a big in my book. No bad if you need to crash for a night, but extended stays????
• Verified traveler (4/5): Total trash. - Very disappointing, did not feel safe, could not sleep based on having to constantly peek out at my vehicle to make sure that it was safe, broken mirror in the bathroom, very messy room, walls had dirty smudges all over it, bed had multiple stains, cheapest towels you can find, no special amenities whatsoever, Definitely not recommended.
• Leonard (8/5): - It was Clean, comfortable, and location was perfect
• Ronald (6/5): - Very dated. The shower knobs spun and the bathroom had some mold/mildew in the caulking
• N K (4/5): - for me difficult to find when I left all my clothes in my suitcase had to be washed because of overwhelming smell of cigarette
• Donna (2/5): - The room smell like must and feet...
• CARL L (8/5): overnight stay - only problem was the room key did not want to work. little jiggling and i got it to work. other than that, room was excellent.
• Amoret (4/5): Urgh so so - Staff was ok no hi how are you Seemed to be in a hurry I had a teenager? Take my money and check me in, ok but gave me a key that did not work, I guess his mom was training him and showed him where the new updated keys were. Still could not get it. It took 10 mins Comforter had a burnt hole in it how about replacing it? Loose knobs in shower Close to my kid thats why I stay there.
• Dianne K (4/5): - It was convenient. A lot of negatives.
• Eric (6/5): - Dump
• Patricia (6/5): - It was a fairly comfortable oversight stay. Walls are paper thin, no toilet paper holder, and dingy sheets and towels. Very no frills, but that's all we needed...a place to sleep before driving again. Would stay again if we're back in Lake Wales.
• Doreen (10/5): - Don’t judge this motel from outside looks. My room very nice with granite countertops and wide plank laminate flooring. Nice shower with window and all 2 of the soap/shampoo dispensers. This motel is very close to the Bok Towers Gardens. It proved to be quiet and I liked having my car at my door! Refrigerator and microwave. No ice. I was alone and felt safe. Stayed one night. Bed OK. Slept well Would come again.
• Christopher (2/5): - I was there early and hotel put construction workers next to my room when they could have had separation. Would never stay there again. The paper thin walls was up until 2 am because of noise and up at 5 am because of noise. advise spent more money and get a good night sleep not worth the savings
• David (6/5): Not quite what we had hoped for. - At check-in, I was surprised to learn that a surcharge was added for using my credit card, so the cost was more than what was confirmed in my reservation. There was no toilet tissue in the bathroom, and there was no holder for the tissue (had been pulled out). The internet was so slow, I could not even open emails. The motel appears much older and less attractive than the photos, but the room had a better appearance. On the plus side, the beds were comfortable, the room was clean, and the refrigerator, microwave and flat screen TV all worked well. All in all, it was an OK one-night stay for the money.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - This is a quaint family owned property. It's not fancy but the rooms are extremely clean and well maintained. The internet is excellent and parking is right outside the door. A visit to the Bok Tower near there is a must see. The pricing is excellent and the family is very friendly. We forgot one of our cell phones in the room and they called us so fast we hadn't even left town. I would highly recommend this place.
• Verified traveler (4/5): - The wash cloths had black stains on them. The around the toilet was dirty. Had a hard time opening the door
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice place
• Verified traveler (10/5): - The room was clean and updated.
• Verified traveler (4/5): - Wont go again
• Verified traveler (6/5): Okay - Didnt have towels and stuff like they neef to a problem with the toilet. But overall it was ok. Clean room. Still a little high for the price
• Miguel (10/5): Very Good Motel - Room was clean and comfortable Microwave and mini fridge helps. Shower very clean w/ lot of towels. May use new shade curtains in the room. They'll ask if u need some service(clean the room, more towels ,etc) Front desk very small but NICE couple. In general ; VERY GOOD. I'll come back.
• Verified traveler (4/5): - Bad neighborhood nah a place I would ever stay again and it's not that it was bad the neighborhood was that they were trying but good luck stuff stolen out of the car or the truck terrible time
• Tim (8/5): No bad - Was ok for the price
• Dino (10/5): 👌👌 - It’s was a very good stay , quiet clean nice people
• Verified traveler (10/5): a place to rest. - Very good service. The woman who checked us in was very helpful and she reached out to make sure we found this motel. Clean, friendly atmosphere.
• Kenny (8/5): - I stayed at this property 4 years ago and it was awful, did not realize it was same place until I got there. The transformation was unbelievable, like a entirely new place. For the price and renovation and upgrade, i will stay there again in the near future.
• Mark (8/5): Not a bad place for an over night - Room and beds are OK, Room was clean, Would be nice if the staff spoke more English, When we checked in the guy said we did not have a reservation till I showed him my app on my phone.
