First of all had to walk through 3-4 inches of water just to get into the office. Room was in old building and was completely dissatisfied, room was dingy, mattress soft, stains on sheets and mattress appeared old and dirty. I advised the front desk I would not be staying there. Huge disappointment and I will be seeking a refund.

AVOID, AVOID, AVOID!!

This place just needs to be torn down and shouldnt legally be allowed to have guests. Our family are not hotel snobs at all and have stayed in questionable hotels before but we left this one early. The pictures on the site showed it was an older hotel and we went in expecting that. If we hadn't been awake for 46 hrs, we wouldn't have spent 1 minute here. Not one good thing to say about this motel. Mold in the room, doors didn't close all the way, dirty floors and lights. The "lobby" smelled like a damp basement. The air conditioners had nasty buckets underneath and one of them didn't so black water was running onto the balcony. Tub was disgusting with mold, the outside of the tub and toilet had mold around it. Dead bugs on lamps and stuck in cobwebs. I wish I could post more than 8 pictures, I took 20 of them! I was told by the front desk they're building a new one next door that will be open in a few years. I told her they shouldn't be allowed to rent this one in the meantime. The health department needs to shut it down. We received no refund for our 2nd night.

Door didn't close all the way and had 3 locks plus a chain lock

Our room was on the second floor with a balcony overlooking Crystal river. We enjoyed the view, watching the dolphins and manatees. So relaxing, we brought our own paddleboards and paddled to Three sisters and encountered more manatees. We'll be back. The restaurants food was excellent, the grouper sandwich was the bomb.

Shower faucet falling off. Doors have extra locks as earlier ones had broken. No hair conditioner “Breakfast” machine coffee no artificial sweeteners, cookies for breakfast and underripe bananas. Just no effort! We chose this place knowing the area had been hit multiple times by hurricanes. We like giving our business to local places. But there needs to be some effort of comfort. Unfortunately we booked on hotels.com. Spent 109 on this hotel worth about 60.

Old Florida style hotel on the water with a super pretty view and a bigger room than expected. Super friendly staff. The restaurant on the property is great, Grouper bites are a must have! Really affordable pontoon rentals $239 after taxes for a 10 person boat from 8am-5pm with gas included?? That’s unheard of! 10/10 experience I can’t wait to come back!
