- Melissa (7/5): -

- Kerry (10/5): -
- William (4/5): - Pretty good value for price, that's about it.
- antoaneta (8/5): -
- Pablo Alejandro (10/5): - Personal muy amable. Un consejo. Con poco dinero y un p poco de empeño se podría dejar realmente en buenas condiciones. Son pequeños detalles en los que tienen que poner la mira.
- Rachel (9/5): It was very clean, quiet, and comfortable. Would stay again. - Affordable, clean and good location Not the owners fault but a woman opened her door naked to get her toddler to go back in the room. More a complaint about the other guests who stay there.
- Karen (10/5): -
- Barbara (4/5): -
- Marvin (6/5): Average - Was clean and quiet. Misleading. Was older and dated. Price was way too high for the room. Definitely not a top notch . No garden area. Pool filled in with concrete.
- Millicent (10/5): We arrived late in the afternoon and ready for food and rest. -
- Carol (10/5): - It was just as advertised on website. 8.0 yes it was!
- doony (8/5): Good - It was relatively quiet although the location is near by the street. Clean, but dated The microwave didn't work, the fridge worked bad.

- Kerry (9/5): -
- Chaz'nGerry (8/5): Comfortable - affordable - Pretty good location along 41. Adequate parking. Easy check-in. The room was quaint, sorta expected more quaint...but it was good for the price. Cement instead of water in the pool....seems typical for these older lodges in the area but wasn't there to swim with the beaches so close. Some dining options one by, but if you look you'll find gitchier places a bit farther away. Would we stay again? Yes. Overall...a good stay. Family business - no corporate so you get that family touch. Comfortable rooms. Clean and good showers. Easy, convenient location.

- Shawn (8/5): - The rooms were very clean and i'm nice. The rooms were dated and didn't have proper plugs for current electronics. The vending machines were outdated and didn't take cards so I couldn't get anything to drink or a snack. I didn't see an ice machine anywhere.

- Brian (4/5): - Not a very good place to stay, should have spent more money to stay elsewhere. AC not on in room, then turned on but not able to cool down room, never stopped running but wasn't putting out cold air. Couple holes punched in walls and bathroom door, lousy shower head, no pressure.

- Sondra (6/5): - There was no sign showing the name of the motel. I only knew it was the correct address by my GPS. The shower had mold and I did not feel safe taking a shower there.
- Boulanger (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lawrence (9/5): Very nice hotel surpassed expectations - Very surprised in a good way, the room was very clean good size, don’t be put off by the outside of the motel the sign is gone due to hurricane damage I’m guessing, front desk very nice when checking in made process quick.
We had a room on the backside of the building very quiet.
Would definitely stay here again.
- Crystal (8/5): Very good -
- Adrian (8/5): - This is a good budget-friendly option. Not a lot of frills. High traffic area, better for car travel than walking, not many dining options nearby.
- Joanne (10/5): - Very nice place looks can be a little deceiving from the outside but definitely great in the inside. I had a back room. I loved the little patio in the back with the table and chairs as well. Will definitely visit there again.
- Elia (10/5): Exceptional -
- John (6/5): Pleasantly surprised, reasonable price - Updated and clean for an older building. Gal at check in was super nice. Loud traffic (if insulated windows & seal door better might help).
- christopher (10/5): - What I liked most was that the staff were kind and loving.They respected my privacy and allowed me to rehearse uninterrupted.Sometimes I get loud when I rehearse because I am an entertainer.I really dont know if I am going to continue pursuing entertainment.It is fun but all i really want is Love.When people show you love thats the most important thing to me especially from a business.Anyway #Hollywood out
- Vicente (10/5): Exceptional -
- christopher (10/5): - The sign at the property was broken the door key did not always work 2 fire extinguishers were out of date there were broken bricks everywhere and things such as loose wires its all good it doesnt take much to please me I am happy just having a roof over my head but i could see these things being problems for future customers.
- Hawley (2/5): Bad. Is that short enough? - Room was clean. Ugly, but clean. Every booking service I checked with listed a swimming pool as an amenity - most even had pictures. In reality, the pool has been completely filled in and is now just a mass of concrete.
There was no ice available. No ice buckets in the rooms, no ice machine.
The AC worked, but was loud enough to interfere with sleep.
Parking was minimal. I had to park on ones side of the building and hike around to the other side to get to my room.
Lighting was poor - the lamps had 40 watt bulbs and were dim.
And all of this still cost $209 per night after taxes!!!
- michael (8/5): - The manager was very helpful and the property was clean. The hotel is old and shows its age.
- Allen (7/5): middle priced economy clean motel - Old but well kept. management exceptional. Quality of towels are barley acceptable but I have seen worse. Great location for work, Not beach-front or vacation but if your looking for a basic clean safe place near the Airport This place is good. I would stay here again. I like big soft fluffy Towels.
- Allen (10/5): Exceptional - Convenient, comfortable and great price. Rooms were nice enough for us.
- Anita (7/5): Good -
- Eric (7/5): Good -
- Elaine (9/5): Superb - Location was great. 1.5 miles from airport. Restaurants, supermarket, pharmacy nearby. It was adequate for what was needed. Only a one night stay.

- Kelley (7/5): Good -
- Karen (8/5): - Great location for our scuba diving trip to the Blue Heron Bridge. Only complaints were toilet was acting up and water took several minutes to get hot. Oh and the pillows were hard. Would stay again but would bring our own pillows. Great staff. Very friendly.

- Dayli (1/5): Bad accommodation and bad service - The lady who serves the hotel is very rude, has no education and is very rude, she is homophobic and racist. The two older ladies are racist and very rude people, they treated me very badly, they were very rude to me. They have to be careful with these two people who work at the hotel. They are two ladies, they are the managers of the hotel along with another lady who has a cane.

- Jonathan (2/5): - Hotel was full of mole had to call health department on them was sick coughing all night long couldn't sleep had to leave full and this is a health hazard. Hotels.com should close this place down.
- Paula (8/5): Great Basic Room and Location - Overall our stay was fine. The staff member was friendly and worked hard to make sure we had what we needed in the room. There is no pool but that was a non-factor for us. The room was a bit dated but nice and clean and well maintained. The location was great being within driving distance of major area attractions. We would return next time we are in the area.
- Michael (5/5): Passable - Not much of anything No towels and toiletries
- Carrie (5/5): Passable -
