We arrived early and very friendly staff told us our room was ready. Everything from this point on was downhill. The property looks as if it has not been updated since 1970. The pool was cool and not heated. The room was up is more. Our feet became dirty from walking on the floor. The bats were soft and lumpy. The hairdryer did not work. There was mold growing in the bathroom along with several holes in the wall. Overall, this is the worst hotel. I’ve stayed in in the last 30 years.

The rooms are disgusting, very dirty. The entire property is run down. I wasn't in my room 5 minutes before I went back to the desk and requested a different room.

The receptionist was very accommodating and a pleasure to work with. However, we had issues with the room and the television and the maintenance supervisor had to come after 10:00 p.m. to get everything corrected. We were under the impression that the higher rate that we paid included the parking for the cruise. Apparently did not because I got charged an additional $80 by econo Lodge. This needs to be clearly stated in booking that it is an additional charge that is not associated with the room fee. I initially booked the room and was given the wrong arrival date. When I changed the arrival date I was given another $30 fee. I would like some kind of explanation as to why both of these additional fees occurred

We regret the confusion and additional fees incurred in the booking process. We have improved our online booking system to ensure that parking fees and arrivals dates are more clearly communicated. We hope you will give us another chance in the future and that you have a more pleasant experience.Sincerely, Hotel Manager

Booked late through Travelocity ~ one week before my trip. My schedule varies from week to week and I didn’t know if I would be off until last minute. Attending a dance workshop along with many others from across FL. Discounted rooms set aside for dancers each year. Was told when I phoned, no rooms left so no choice but to book through a travel site. Offered 1 of 2 rooms upon arrival, opted for 1 next door to a friend as she was away from others in our group. Aside from last 2 years canceled d/t Covid, I’ve stayed here several times before. Didn’t think it could get worse but it has. Well lit at night but sketchy in the back where I had to park and then walk to front side where my room was. Dropped luggage off and headed to the Kiwanis center for the evening workshop. Noticed late after returning to my room, only deadbolt on door, chain and security latch broken off. Security a concern, I found a bungee cord in my car that I used to loop around the door handle and secure to the chain lock piece left on the frame. That and with my friend next door I felt ok. A good look around my $200 room, the bed was comfortable and linens were clean, floor swept but beyond that, the room had not seen a thorough cleaning in a long time. Found out Sat, others paid $79 per night. Desk clerk unable to address my concerns later when I spoke to her. Admitted they double prices when occupancy is up. It’s up because of the workshop! Email to manager still unanswered 3 weeks later.
