Better than expected
After reading the other reviews I was scared to book here but because we where coming to town around 11 pm and leaving back out at 9 am we didn't want to pay the higher rates. The older gentleman that checked me in was very nice and welcoming. The room was clean and I felt safe. No complaints other than the loud noise of pluming at about 3 am. It's a no frills hotel. Small clean pool and small eating area in lobby. If you do plan to stay in your room a lot this is a decent place to stay to save money.

Basic
We came to this hotel for a 1 night stay, the room was not at all clean. The sheets and towels both had stains on them. The breakfast was also very basic. Overall this hotel is not worthy of the nightly rate that they charge compared to other similar hotels. I will not be staying here again

pittful experience wouldn't recommend
We didn't even stay here we arrived from a 13hour drive and was overly exhausted and got there to check in & asked to see the room we see the room no air , dirty laundry by my bed , broken lamp..I go to front desk to report these things not to not stay but so he can fix the situation instead the staff tells me I'm needy he doesn't have time to fix the air I've got a attitude , he said you don't seem happy with my hotel go find another one because I don't have time to fix your needs , that's not how your treat a guest and not to mention its Panama City and its spring break so he canceld our resvation without us agreeing to it and we had search for a hotel for 3 more hours that's also for the time we are staying & not a ridiculous price , this guy doesn't care about anything but money he doesn't listen or help he's very disrespectful and he's foreign and I'm American so it explains , I think this trashy hotel should be shut down!!!!! Not clean healthy place to lay your head.

Great hotel with great service
Well we got a great room at a decent price. We did have 2 problems. One we unplugged the cable box and didn't know it so had to call front desk and maintenance was there in seconds but that was our fault. Second time ac wasn't blowing well and again staff responded amazingly fast. I really liked the place

Nice location
Two story hotel with no elevator, so if you have issues climbing stairs, call ahead and request a ground floor room. The room was clean, the staff was nice. The mattresses in our room were not exactly comfortable. We did notice there was a work crew working on some of the rooms remodeling, so could be a work in progress. It is close to Panama City Mall, and right next door to O'Charleys. Golden Corral with in a block and a half. They have danishes, muffins, cereal, bagels and fresh fruit along with juice (apple and orange) and milk for breakfast. There is a Krispy Kreme down the same road about 1 mile. Short stay not spending alot of time in room with 2 teenagers wasn't too cramped.

Quick Stop
This was a quick overnight stay! It was decent for a small amount of money. The rooms look to be in the process of remodeling, as there were materials left in the hallway next to my room. However, it was peaceful and very close to EVERYTHING.

I've been in worse.
It's not the best however it was worth the price I paid. Trash trucks in the morning doesn't help start your day. Poor maintainace in the room. Great water pressure in the shower. Bed sleeps well, no lumps.

Softball Tournament
We were there for a softball tournament it was not far from fields. The service was great and so was the people. Restaurants in walking distance. Breakfast wasn't open early enough for softball players who have early games that is the only thing I found wrong with it.

room wasn't ready when I got there, they were cleaning it then and we had to wait. when we came back, a lizard was on the bed! The ceiling in the bath had mold and mildew and the light in the bathroom kept going off and on. I would not recommend this place, looked nothing like the pictures on web.

It was OK overall. Management was very helpful in making a room change to accommodate handicapped needs. One room had ants most of the time but the housekeeping staff were pleasant and helpful.
