The building has more than a few years on her, but it was very clean, and the property was well managed. Thanks to Marika and Jen for everything. See you next year!

Parking tricky
Not the cleanest
Comfortable bed
Convenient to everything
I checked in late at night and immediately checked out the next morning. Room was disgusting, bed was at least twenty years old, peeling paint, mold, just overall bad.
I was told there was a change of ownership happening shortly but had not occurred yet
It was a wonderful stay and affordable. Association with the Sunset Grill 3 miles away with use of their pool was great. Hope to be back to stay longer next time.
We arrived and jennifer introduced herself and got us checked in also left us know about different places we have never been to. We also met Marika
They were amazing, cannot wait to go back.
The property itself is nothing fancy. But it was so clean. Staff was very friendly and accommodating and so convenient to everything. I don’t know about anyone else but when we go on vacation, we just need a place to land and sleep take our showers this facility is just this hotel is just that! I second time in the keys and I have stayed here both times. Like I said the rooms are nothing fancy. They are easy to get to easy to load easy to unload and everything you need is around you. And they are clean!! When I come back, this is where I will stay again.
Never worth the money
The lavender paint scheme and fixtures were hideous.
Recommend no one go here

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
1st of all, the staff were really nice and polite. The bed was a bit worn, springy, the room is dated but clean enough. The shower controls were straightforward to get the right temperature. In the description, it says it has a pool, but it doesn't, maybe just a typo by Expedia.
Good stay for the money.
It was clean and i liked there was a full sized refrigerator and freezer. No coffee pot. The room was OK but there were cracks in the walls and the bathroom sink drained really slow.

Disliked: Amenities
The property was a good location. But when i booked the room travelocity had there was a swimming pool on site. There was no pool and that is one of the reasons i booked because i thought there was a pool. They need to remove it from the listing so no one else books wanting pool access.
The worst hotel I’ve ever seen in my life. Dirty and full of cockroaches. Stained sheets and horrible beds. I had to get another hotel and leave that one even though I lost my money
