The whole experience a NO

This property had water damage to the base boards, broken bed frame, sheet rock damage on walls, door handles that look like anyone can pick through, and bugs. Ice machine broken but hotel workers put ice in zip loc bags. Who want someone playing over there ice with Covid19, meningitis outbreak, hepatitis A, and monkey pox going around. This property really need to go through and fix there rooms. People living inside the hotel rooms and smoking weed outside. Overpriced for the condition of the hotel. I made a video to show the damage.

This motel sucked couldn't have "guests" swim in pool if they wasn't a hotel guests. The AC in my room didn't provide cold air even after complaining about it they said there wasn't anything they could do. Half the outlets didn't work and almost all the lamps where missing light balbs. There where ants in room and found dead cockroach in the bed. Worst stay ever..

Nice place in Winter Haven

It's a very nice hotel. It's obviously been around a while so it's a little shopworn in spots, but it's perfectly fine. The lady serving breakfast Sunday morning could have used some help but she handled things the best she could with a great attitude. Very clean and everyone I dealt with was very nice. Would definitely recommend to others and stay there again.

I’ve stayed at pretty bad places but this place was a bit too far, the door didn’t lock and the security safety lock inside didn’t work either it was hanging on by a thread. Rooms poorly cleaned and the pillows don’t get me started they are so stiff I have had a neck ache for days. The only good thing is the water is so hot like hot hot. Like dangerously hot! There are people who lived here long term that was a bit weird too, like Apartment style….

Just ok

So our door did not lock in room 410, or 209 both were very unsafe and sketchy. The door nobs we’re rusted out, and seemed very scary. The absolute worst part is this is like a long term housing option like there are people who live here and store boats, even, school busses, etc very strange
