The price was right, but you get what you pay for.
GLEN, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

What I thought was odd was you conducted all transactions through a small sliding window. There were a lot of construction workers and people placed by FEMA. But, surprisingly, it was quiet and we didn't have any trouble. The parking lot was well lit. The website stated that there weren't any bedsheets on the beds, but there were, and they were clean. Overall, the stay was better than I expected.

Llegamos y no podíamos respirar del mal olor adentro de la habitación, no tenía ventanas, olor a humo y humedad. Sucio la alfombra. Nos fuimos a otro lugar a los 30 minutos de llegar. We arrived and we couldn't breathe from the bad smell inside the room, it had no windows, the smell of smoke and humidity. Dirty carpet. We went to another place within 30 minutes of arriving.

Terrible terrible service and disgusting rooms.
Tadarious, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Do not go here

This hotel was closed for any reservation made through a booking agent. I was given a $75 rate and used my cash key of $5 so I was expecting to pay $70. I was charged $129. I was shocked and it was too late for me to find something else in this area. I will be contacting Hotels.com about this. You should not advertise a property that is only used for Cema and construction workers. I felt very unsafe.price gouging nasty place!

We never were able to stay there, our reservation was cancelled by the hotel & Expedia charged us. We are protesting the Expedia charge with our credit card company.The hotel said they couldn't do anything about refunding us. no help from anyone!
Janice, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A nice inexpensive motel.

Did not see any bugs. Room was clean, though it was dated. Had a king with 2 pillows. Pool area looked nice. I would stay again. It's not bad considering the price. About a 15 minute drive from The Sound amphitheater.

Had an issue with our trip and had to leave a day early due to a hospitalization. Hotel was not willing to work with me on even a partial refund for that day
jonathan, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Inn was right on the main road to clearwater beach and Pier 60. Walmart was just a block away. Very old place but nice and clean. Nice tv with great selections. Fridge and microwave were nice. There were some people hanging out outside room next to us, were friendly but made me a little nervous. Overall a nice place to stay for a night or two while visiting the clearwater area.
