Room had an off smoke/incense smell. Bed was uncomfortable, sheets were stained, pool towels to be used as bath towels. Definitely not staying here again

The expression don’t judge a book by its cover applies here. The exterior is & looks old but the room I was in appeared upgraded. The staff seemed to have a language barrier because the woman did not understand English when I asked for a copy of my room charges. The small pool appeared clean but I didn’t get to swim this trip, one reason is the pool is open only 9AM to Dusk. Breakfast not even continental is provided but the room had a one cup generic coffee maker, good working micro & mini fridge. The bed & pillows were most comfortable I slept very well. Last but not least the bathroom was well supplied with soap, shampoo & conditioner plus hair dryer.

Decent stay. Room was ok. Not dirty but not totally spotless. Room smelled a little musty and like smoke.
Check-in was easy. The room was clean along with the bathroom. We had a room with a hot tub and it was also clean. It's close to downtown and other areas so you dont have to travel too far to get where you want to go. Vilano beach is also about 5 mins away. Very cute hotel. We would definitely stay here again.

I stay here pretty frequently at different times of the year. Never had an issue until today. When i stay i usually stay for a week or so at a time. I live in the area but use this hotel to just get away and relax. The owners son has now twice banged on my door like he's swat, he's very rude, very dismissive, just really not pleasant at all. He was complaining about me having company. Since when is having company at a hotel an issue? I don't have anyone sleeping over. He said he sees on the camera it's more than just me staying here. He said he had to come in and check the room. I said he could come in he walked in super fast, went right to the bathroom quickly turned around and walked out and slammed the door. Im really annoyed with this and feel this is ridiculous considering the amount of money i spend here.
The hotel is old but the room and bath were very clean with a hot shower and great water pressure. The bed was comfortable. The room also came with a fridge and microwave. When the sink plugged up the proprietor took care of it right away. It showed us that they care about their guests. Very reasonable price.
