It was so dirty I was afraid i might catch something if I took a shower. My feet were clean when I went in. I took off my shoes and the bottom of my feet were black in next to no time. I booked two days. There was no cleaning while we were there. I will not be back, and I have repeat business in the area coming up.

Manager Mona and her team was very pleasant and accommodating. I really loved the service. Sheets are changed every few days. Clean towels always available. I liked 24 hours front desk. They helped me when i locked my card in my room. Parking always available. Bathrooms look like newly renovated. Air-condition works well. Wifi breaks sometimes. I've spoken to the owner when I had situation with my credit card,very accommodating, and really fantastic person. Quiet motel,has a security. Overall, for the price I would highly recommend and would come back.

The workers were so great and helpful and sweet! The place was not clean very well. There was hair on the wall and bathroom there was trash on floor by the garbage bin under bathroom sink. The floor was sticky and so so dirty I had to pick up some water on the floor and once I did one wipe with the towel the towel was black from dirt. Cops speeding by with sirens. Toilet had old pee on the outside bottoms of it. And there were cockroaches everywhere. The microwave was very dirty and burnt. Besides the place the workers were very nice and very helpful!

Crap! How do I better put it? Booked a stay at a hotel last weekend, for around $98 a night. It seemed a bit low, but was listed as a special. When we arrived, and received our room key, we were appauled by our findings. First, neither of the beds we actually made. Just a quick tossover of the comforter. There were gobs of either strawberry jelly or menstral fluid, smeared on the walls by the head of the bead. Streams of "white" fluid running down the wall near the bathroom,... and it didn't get any better from there. Went to request a room switch, and option 2 was the same or worse. Suffice to say, this place was more like a charge by the hour motel; and we refused to stay and risk contracting a disease. We took plenty of pictures, explained the situation, and were still refuse a refund. Expedia and that trash-hole should both be incinerated as a public service!

First- the room on Expedia for this hotel, was not the room we received. We booked a king bed and got a queen bed whose frame was held up by a wooden slat. The room had no carpeting, a broken TV, no chair, and it was dirty and smelly. I contacted Expedia and they did not care that the room was not as pictured. Not even close. I complained to the hotel and they said they had no control over the advertised picture of the room. I never got a better room and warn everyone to NOT STAY HERE. The place is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. I have pictures but this review does not allow me to post a picture.

It's an old, run down hotel in St Pete off US19 for $100 a night....it's what you would expect it to be. Everything else around this town in $3-400. It got the job done. Staff were nice. They do the best they can with what they have. Not for the dainty, but if you're a seasoned traveler with foreign miles under your belt, you'll be fine.

Grateful for the room as I needed a place to sleep somewhat last minute, however, the first room I was booked for had a faulty toilet (was running and would not stop, could not flush). The second room I was booked to (and stayed in) was dirty, the white towels has black marks all over them, the toilet in the room hardly flushed, there were scratch marks and red marks on the wall at the head of the bed, and to top it off, there were crusty semen stains on the top sheet. Awful.

Not a safe neighborhood, had people asking for change at corner. Others walk thru the lot getting to the other side of the facility. It’s apparent families live in the Inn and couples checking in for one-nighters! Bathroom were old, old. The bathroom in my room was green and pink tiles! Pillow cases were off white, giving me the impression they were not sanitized. We checked out within the hour of checking in. I didn’t feel comfortable in laying in bed and staying overnight. Pictures are not what the hotel is really like!
