Guest Reviews
- Rachael (4/5): - Not sure if it was a husband or wife, but somebody got locked out of a room and they kept pounding on the door in the middle of the night for the person to let them in could not sleep
- Michelle (10/5): - Thought this would be not great because prove was cheap… I was wrong. Plenty of space and very clean! On second night we pulled in and one minute later the front desk guy walked out fresh towels to my room! I had not asked for anything. Is everything perfect? No, but it’s very usable, very clean, and I didn’t feel unsafe. AC was in when we arrived, no issues with keeping it cool!! Shower has lots of room too!
- George (10/5): - Very clean and well kept inside the room and outside
- Victor Manuel (6/5): - Fine
- Christianah (10/5): - Lovely place .
- Harry (8/5): 2 week stay - The place was old, but clean. Owners were very nice, but couldn't get the WiFI to work half way through my stay. That would be the only reason for me not to go back there.
- Iván Enrique (10/5): - Perfect except the WiFi connection has too many issues
- Jennifer (10/5): - this place was clean but very dated and the bed was so uncomfortable. the outside needs some work and felt kind of shady outside of the room but didn't have any problems
- Arlene (6/5): - As a single female guest, I felt a little uncomfortable. Not brightly lit, but I was able to park right in front of my room door.
- Robert (10/5): - Very clean room would stay here again
- Carlyle (8/5): - Good price and great staff. Convenient location.
- Lu (6/5): Quiet little place with very friendly staff - Clean and nice quiet place. Was a bit worried as I was asked for my drivers license and my DL# was written down. Normally not a good sign. But no issues and very quiet. Bed was very comfortable. Only issue I had with my room was that the heat did not work. It was 51 degrees that morning so it was a little chill. Note to staff. Room 28
- Leticia (10/5): Safe, Peaceful and Quiet - DeSoto Motel is safe, peaceful, and quiet. The motel staff are very friendly. Enjoyed our stay at the motel.
- gregoryhN5002QU (8/5): Clean basic room - The room we stayed in was very clean, had no issues. The tv worked well. For the low price we paid and that someone was available at 3am I was satisfied. If you need to dry your hair bring your own hair dryer.
- william (8/5): Convenient. - Close to town.
- Verified traveler (2/5): What A Dump! - Booked online because the reviews were good. Learned later from some locals that people who wrote the reviews were confusing this dump with another hotel in town.
We pulled up and didn't even want to get out of the car. It looked and even felt dirty just to be in the office. Clerk did not speak English and locked door behind us when we entered office. Needless to say, when he unlocked it we hightailed it out of there.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - convenient and clean. worth the money spent. Quiet and easy to access
- Cecil (10/5): - It was a good stay. The room was big and quiet. It was clean and comfortable.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Nice and clean - Nice and clean
- Jamie (10/5): Nice - Clean, good price, mangmnt polite and helpful. No breakfast, no coffee🤔comfy though and quiet.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The property was in good condition. The staff went above their duty to make my stay enjoyable. I unknowingly dropped my room key at Wendy's and the staff opened the door to let my wife stay in the room while I went to look for it.
- Thomas (8/5): - Overall very pleased with my stay there surprisingly clean 4 and older looking Hotel the only thing questionable was even though the sheets looked and smelled clean look like they had been on the bed for a while
- Verified traveler (10/5): - It was nice and quite, the staff was helpful when ever I needed something.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - It was quite and away from the small city. Cold air
- 255joycel (10/5): Safe quiet motel - Family run hotel, individual units very clean and quiet. Staff was very professional and friendly, would stay here again while attending the rodeo. .The highway noise was not a problem. Parking is right in front of unit.
- pompitus (4/5): the sign said clean and safe - they had me at safe after seeing the other hotels on the other side of town and the place seemed to be fairly clean for much older buildings. sure the tv remote would only work when standing 2 feet from the tv but it was a flat screen. if you wanted ice you could get a small amount in a paper thin bag during office hours. the fridge and micro were old and loud but seemed to work fine and the old beat up heater/air conditioner actually worked fine as well. no breakfast or coffee however. the folks running the place were very nice. the wifi had issues but did work.
- marciap1 (2/5): The worst motel in florida - My stay at this motel was the worst. The manager was abrasive, rude and nasty. They refused to give us towels, pillows, and a blanket for the bed. We had guests over for the afternoon and they were very intrusive and wanted to know who they were and how long they were staying. He called us at 7Am waking us up wanting to know if we called them. The Internet and TV never worked. He told us we couldn't have a service dog and wanted to charge us extra. We were told that check out was at 1pm. We returned from breakfast after 11am and he was waiting for us yelling that check out was after 11. We told him he stated 1 pm. He continued to argue with us.
Don't stay there was a terrible experience.
- jm8675309x (2/5): Nasty - The WiFi doesn't work, and the shower was full of gross mildew. But the worst part of this place, by far, was when we tried to go to bed, and there was hair on the pillows and between the sheets of the beds! It was nauseating. We had to get sleeping bags from the car and lay them out on top of the beds before we could bring ourselves to sleep on them. Nasty! Seriously, how hard is it to change the sheets between guests?
Wish we'd paid a few bucks more and stayed somewhere else instead!
