Do not stay here!!! Pictures are a lie. This is where you do drugs or pay for prostitution. Dirty is an understatement! Carpets stained, walls stained, broken furniture, small beds, and it smelled like mold. Spend a little extra to go somewhere else please!

This place was the worst hotel I have ever stayed in in 68 years. It was dirty, there were roaches, there was mold, we were only given bath towels, and no washcloths, and no hand towels. A lot of the guests were very sketchy hanging out outside smoking pot. I should have known when I pulled in and they were very few cars there. We had booked for two nights and we only stayed for one. We should not have stayed the first night but it was late by the time we got in. The whole place needs to be torn down and rebuilt. It’s very old. I would never stay there again nor would I recommend it to anyone.

This place was beyond nasty. As soon as I walked in, there was a strong mildew smell. The bed skirt, chair, and even parts of the walls were covered in mold—completely unacceptable and a major health hazard. The room felt dirty and humid, like it hadn’t been cleaned or aired out in ages. There was only one towel provided. I honestly couldn’t even relax because everything felt so unsanitary. Save yourself the frustration and find another hotel. This place needs a serious deep cleaning and inspection before anyone should stay there again.

The hotel is completely abandoned and uninhabitable. There is a cat infestation that fights all night, making it impossible to sleep. We found worms crawling on the walls and bed, the place smells of dampness, and it is full of mold. Water leaks from the ceiling and also comes up through the bathroom floor, making everything even more unsanitary. Everything is rusted, dirty, and unsafe. The breakfast is terrible—no eggs or bacon, just bread. The mini golf is overgrown, dirty, and completely unusable. I came for work and needed rest, but that was impossible. I brought my family so they could enjoy the “resort” facilities while I worked, but when we arrived, we were met with frustration on their faces. The disappointment was total. We stayed only one night and left immediately. I do not recommend this place under any circumstances. It should not be open to the public.

When we first arrived the room that was reserved for us was suggested as a “priority” for Expedia guests. Immediately walking into the room the smell of mildew and mold hit us, then once we took our shoes off we quickly realized the carpet was soaked. There were no trash cans in the room, minimal towels, no ice bucket or cups. Just seemed like this room was forgot. Luckily the desk associate got us switched to a new room, don’t mind the 2 inch gap under the door or the water soaked carpet by the ac unit. This room was the cleanest either but better than the first. The breakfast was minimal but enough to get us started for the day, luckily we got there early cause not sure how long that food would have been left sitting out. We were also unaware that there were additional fees once checking in. The “complimentary amenities” suggested by Expedia are not so complimentary once you have to pay them at the hotel. Needless to say for what we needed the room for as far as sleep and spending the day at the parks it served its purposes but wouldn’t be quick to book it again.

This is a very large complex but all guests are placed in one building. The carpets are a mess and should be pulled out. Perhaps that was only my room but I doubt it. The room had no hand towels and only one washcloth which I thought was strange because I had reserved for two guests. Thankfully the second person was not able to join me or we would have had to share a single washcloth. Eww.

On the first night that we arrived at the hotel we received a filthy room filled with mold, cobwebs, cockroaches and a terrible smell of body odour. The bed sheets were stained and the pillows were of colour yellow. On the second day we demanded a change of room because of its lack of comfort and cleanliness. They showed us 3 different rooms for which all lacked a standard of cleanliness. The last room was the best of all, to which it still lacked minimum level of cleanliness. We had to buy our own cleaning equipment to make the room a habitable one. The pictures on their profile do not reflect what the actual hotel looks like. Do avoid if you’re looking for a comfortable and CLEAN stay in Florida.
