Wouldn’t recommend anyone staying here, roaches crawling the walls , also management is terrible , they don’t communicate with eachother nobody ever knows what’s going on in the office they don’t properly book your stay and then will bang and kick at your door to tell you they’ve made a mistake and demand your wife to get out while your away at work this place is horrible and needs to be shut down they owner is very rude I would sleep in my car before I gave them any money

We drove from Houston to Lake City on our way to our home in Cape Coral. Picked this hotel because of the rating it got and convenience to the HWY. When we arrived nobody was in the office and I rang the bell. A Testy woman came out letting me know I had interrupted her walk. I gave her my ID and my credit card. She asked if I had a pet and I told her yes and then she reprimanded me for not booking the room with our pet. I booked through Expedia and checked and there wasn’t any choices where I could do that and I told her that. She charged me the $15 which I wasn’t upset about I’m more upset with her snotty attitude and mean spirit. She also took a picture of my credit card and I asked her what was to become of that piece of paper with ALL my credit card info and she told me at 11 am it would be shredded. WOW! We would be long gone! In the morning we got ourselves ready and packed our car. I told my husband that they had coffee in the office beginning at 7, it was 7:06 at the time so he walked over and the office door was locked. So much for coffee. Room was old and outdated, the toilet rocked back and forth when you used it. Beds were hard, flat and painful, pillows flat and old. I doubt I would ever stay there again. Especially how I got treated when I walked in. So unnecessary especially when you have been in a car since 4 am it is was 5 when we arrived.

There was not much to like about this place, really. It was 49 degrees at nite. There was no heat in the room, unit was broken, no blankets on the bed and none to be found. No coffee maker in the room. The room was very dated. Very unacceptable for the price.
Will never stay there again.

Looking for a bargain? This is it! You get what you pay for here. Wore out bed spreads and mattresses. This hotel is conveniently located for restaurants and water pressure is great! But the rooms are in much needed updates.

This an older property, but well maintained, clean and the staff were very good. Being a motel, parking is right outside of the room, which is great. Will certainly stay again.

I really wanted to like it, but was disappointed at each turn. The check in was easy and the gal was pleasant. The looked good at first glance. Then I got a little closer. Multiple large spots of something discolored on the bedspread. No ventilation in the bathroom, except the window open to the outside at 85degreesand humid weather. The Two tiny pillows on the bed. The towels and sheets were of the lowest quality possible. Lights didn't work. And I saw a pretty good sized" palmetto bug" walking around in the room.

I totally would stay there again.
The room was clean, the bed comfortable, slept the whole night.
The only thing that needed to be done in my eyes is to put some WD40 in the next room's door hinges so it won't make noise when they open the door. (let front desk know). Thanks Jag and everyone.
No breakfast, but that was OK.

Pleasantly surprised the bathroom had just been redone and the fridge and microwave were a nice touch

My arrival was delayed, so I called in the afternoon and was told no problem. When I did finally arrive after 11PM, the lady at the desk had my paperwork all ready to go, so there was no problems at all.
The room was as described by other reviewers. Very neat and clean. AC worked just fine and not too loud. To be honest, the beds have probably seen better days, but they were not that bad. Just a little on the soft side to me. I had no issues with noisy neighbors, but as tired as I was, I probably would not have heard anything anyway.
Over all, the place was just fine and well worth the price. There were cheaper options on Hotels.com, but most had poor reviews. I think I definitely made the right choice and would have no problem returning in the future.

We stayed one night, had 2 dogs, they had a little area at the back of the property that worked perfect for the dogs. Many places to eat around the area. Overall it was a good stay

The air conditioning was off when we arrived and it took a while for the room to cool off. The bathroom window was wide open, the cleanliness was okay but not great.

This is an older kinda if classic style motel. We arrived late( midnight) but the lady came quickly upon ringing the service bell. It was obvious that she had been asleep but she was very nice and she handled everything quickly upon check in. While older and maybe in need of a little refreshing, it was clean and comfortable. Beds are extremely firm as you would expect in an inexpensive stay, but the pillows were extremely soft. We booked this room for a quick overnight en route to our destination and I would stay here again

It was great for our one night stay! We were tired and weary & was able to rest. Nice and clean and very convenient for our trip deeper into Florida. Close to a Walmart and the interstate. The staff are very polite and helped us with our needs, thank you for being so kind and courteous. Thank you!!

Rooms are clean, but VERY small. Hardly any towels. Had to go to front desk twice for towels. They are very stingy with the towels, apparently. I was questioned about asking for them.

We thought the room/place was okay for the price; would not really give it the review value that was shown on Orbitz.
In addition, one person in our party had a dog and had to be at the other end of the place, rather than next to us. She said that she heard a lot of people outside partying after 1:30 am; like someone left the bar and brought back everyone from there. She also had a door that wouldn't shut / seal very well, and was afraid that someone could easily open it.

Unfortunately, our stay was not good. For an older hotel under renovation, it was in fair condition. My husband loved the firm bed. Things were okay until about 3 am when the neighbor started fighting and raising cain. It was to the
point of our calling 911. We checked out.

Check in was quick and easy. Lady in the front was very pleasant. The actual room is not in the best shape, wear and tears (literally) but served my needs as I just stayed there from 8pm-6am the next morning. Had towels, soaps, ice bucket, mini fridge, and microwave.

As others have mentioned, it's an older property, but very well maintained and clean. It was a great one-night stay. Lots of restaurants nearby, and Walmart across the street.
