The good: location, convenient shopping/food/gas options nearby, easy check-in, friendly staff. Big bed with comfy pillows. The couches in the breezeway are a great addition, but could use more cushions. The bad: they NEED CURTAINS!! The lights outside each room are so bright, it looked like daytime in the middle of the night. The shower curtain has no liner and gets everything wet. ALSO, we booked this room with the promise that they're pool is "heated to 82 degrees all year long". It was not. It was ice cold. For what we paid, that was extremely disappointing.

Very nice little hotel gardened to perfection. Truly worth every penny because of the garden walkways to beach. Problem is the oceans crashing against the wall at high tide

buyer beware

I already posted all the negatives except this last one…if they have a lot of guests there’s not enough parking and you may get blocked in which happened to us. SUGGEST GET A WORKING AGREEMENT WITH CITY TO USE THEIR SPOTS IN SUCH CASES.

Polite staff, but the room needs repairs. Shower heads were rusted & floor was soft on 2nd floor in spots. Not worth the $$$ it cost to stay there.

I’ve been using this property for years when I stay in Daytona. I love that it’s close enough to the party yet far enough away from the riff raff. The pool is great and it’s right on the ocean.

Place was ok. Everyrhing kinda old & outdated but right on the beach with a balcony we watched fireworks from. And the owners were nice. Parking was awful and we ended up with an expensive parking ticket for parking right out in front of the hotel.

We decided to stay at this property because it reminded us of the old mom and pop places we used to stay before all the high rises. We knew it would be older so that was expected. The slider door to the balcony needs some work and was very hard to open. The hot tub leaked so we could not use it...after we paid extra for that room. No compensation was offered. The door to the room is mostly glass with blinds built in but at night, the outside lights were so bright, it was like daylight in the room with no way to make it any darker. The lights out back were another story...there were none. The back area had a pool and sitting areas but once it started getting dark, it was really dark. The hotel had great access to the beach and some dining options across the street. It was not terrible but not sure I would stay there again.

The first room they booked us in stunk of smoke and the main light kept blinking like a strobe light. When we went back to discuss with management, she tried to excuse the smoke and lighting. I simply asked for a new room. She reluctantly agreed. The room was quite small with a very hard bed. It was so hard, my wife had to put the pillows under her. A bed of 2"x4" wouldn't have been much harder. Outside the room was nice though. So, it's a good place to stay...as long as you don't have to sleep there.
