Room was clean. Check in was great, desk girl real nice and helpful. Parking $10 and convenient. There is a little bar in the courtyard and a pool. Hotel is definitely dated, but kept up. Most definitely worth the stay. We will use again next time in Ft L.

The staff was very kind and attentive. Unfortunately the spa and gym were closed for renovations but I was able to use a gym in an resort part of the group. Minor glitches but handled nicely and easily. I would return.

One block from ocean is the only good thing about this hotel. Front office was staffed by a ring doorbell. Ring it and someone will show up eventually, while you stand on the doorstep, wasting your vacation time. Half of the light fixtures didn't work, bedroom TV didn't work. Sink in bathroom wouldn't drain. The bathroom door doesn't close entirely, so it cannot be latched. Every time someone did a number two, we got to enjoy the odor for an hour throughout the entire room. And finally, on our last morning, we were woke up at 9am, by tree trimmers with chainsaws directly outside of our windows. I will never stay here again.

I just don’t like how they try to put everyone close to the office and everyone has to look in your room the guy at front desk wasn’t very friendly so I feel he did it on purpose but is what it is

Royal Palms saved us! We checked in to an Airbnb that was just horrible and needed to call an audible. We found Royal Palms on Expedia and seamlessly booked our stay. Once we arrived at the Royal Palms, the staff took care of us and allowed us to relax. Between carrying our bags up to our room and preparing delicious pool-side food, we were very happy with the staff. The property is definitely a bit on the older side and isn’t especially fancy, but the service and location more than makes up for it. In fact, we barely left the neighborhood due to all of the nice mom and pop establishments in the area (and the fact that the beach is 1-2 min walk away). Great bang for your buck, definitely recommend!

The Royal Palms is in definite need of some TLC. While the room was spacious and clean, with good quality bedding, the mattress was old and had a few uncomfortable sags in it. The property is in rough shape with broken and aging furniture throughout the grounds. The gardens don't appear to be maintained and everything is in need of a good power washing and a coat of paint. While it appears to be a gated property, the gates were always unlocked or open and the entire property is open and accessible to the public. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful though they were often hard to reach because one person supports the front desk for a few nearby properties. This means you often need to use a call button to summon the front desk staff and it can take them up to ten minutes to appear. The Royal Palms is a member of the North Beach Village, a conglomerate of six or seven properties of similar vintage and quality. This property doesn't feature any bells and whistles but it does have welcoming staff, ample parking, and a fantastic location, just two blocks from the beach. Great for a budget-conscious traveller who prefers a beach to a "resort".
