While the location of the property in proximity to Old Town, the Airport and Downtown was lovely it was at the edge of a heavy commercial district. Unfortunately during our stay after return back from an evening out we came across a roach in our room. As it was memorial weekend we did not have any choice but to continue our stay for lack of other hotel options. If your just looking for a quick place to lay your head then I'm sure this is your place. If your planning on enjoying your visit I would suggest another hotel.

I want to start by saying that the staff here was amazing and accommodating. The property itself, all the amenities seem to be so old and malfunctioning. The ice machine was broken, the lock apparatus on our door was falling apart and would not read/register the key card. The room was also VERY dirty and stunk of heavy bleach, which felt confusing, because why does the room stink like bleach and yet still be so dirty. With all this said it is also the MOST affordable motel I could find, so I got what I paid for.

The property is on a street surrounded by homeless people and drug addicts. Once entering the property lines, its exactly the same. addicts everywhere! Felt very unsafe. Homeless people sleeping all around. Had a homeless person sleeping by my door. Inside the room was decent. The room was clean, smelled strongly of bleach. Once your inside the room it wasnt too bad, but unfortunately the TV had lines through it and would get worse the longer the TV was on. There's only a couple channels avaliable, most didnt work. Stayed for 2 nights and wouldnt ever stay again. Talked the to front desk, staff was very friendly. Was told the manager would reach out, but havent heard anything yet. Wouldn't ever recommend this place.

Great price and location / rough and tumble hotel

The location is perfect if you are visiting Sea World. However, there is a bench in the back of the property, right in line from our window, where people did drugs from in the morning and at night. The towels were thin and scratchy and the floors were really dirty. The website and hotels.com says there is coffee available and the front desk agent said “there hasn’t been coffee available since Covid.”

No hot water, super thin towels that looked 10 years old. Holes in the wall in the bathroom. Smoke detector covered up with plastic. Different item splattered on the walls in the bathroom. Some brown, was afraid to look any closer. You have to pay for internet. The only good point was the front desk staff. Super friendly and trying to be helpful but they can only work so much.
