The door lock wouldn't work for us twice. Had to get the key replaced. The door was sticky and gross. No body wash in the shower stall the bottle was empty. Mountains of cigarette butts in almost every corner of the property. It felt over all just like a dirty location for a La Quinta Inn. Breakfast was a joke and came out late. Will not be staying here again and question trying another La Quinta in the future.

Staff was very friendly. The first impression of this hotel is a little shocking. The carpet on the property is very worn out and dirty. A lot of the other reviews mention “roaches”. If you do a quick Google search about “roaches in Florida” they are very common because of the humidity and warm climate. The only thing that I didn’t like is that when I got to my room there was

The overnight work he was not pleasant at all. The main doors were locked to the hotel when we came in he made snide remarks that we should use the side door instead as if we as paying quests were a problem and that him getting up out of his chair was a problem. We swiped our key the door didnt open. I have a huge even coming up and want to reserve 25 plus rooms since the girl when i checked in was amazing but I wont have my quests greeted that way if they try and check in at midnight.

I understand this is a budget hotel but at $150 a night, at minimum I would expect cleanliness. This hotel is hideous, the carpets are stained and have mold all around. The furniture in the room was spent and filthy. If you can, avoid this hotel by all means.

They’re remodeling or renovating but we had no warning. Got to our floor to come into a construction zone with paint all over the carpets, the baseboards were all removed, old shelves stacked in the corner by the elevator. It was shocking. Thankfully the room wasn’t in a renovation state, but the walls are paper thin so we could hear every time the neighbor turned on their TV.
