Shower did not work

The room was very clean. Every thing was good until the morning when we wanted to take a shower. Either cold or hot water nothing in between. We decided to leave with no shower!

Clean. Great for the price. Parking is well lit. Marlins restaurant and steakhouse next door. They provide small soap, shampoo, conditioner. Breakfast is continental type-grab and go muffins, pop tarts, boiled eggs etc. Beds and pillows comfortable. Towels soft. Property is not modern, but again clean and great for the price.

Clean, fun, eclectic motel. I like the style, and that's why I chose to stay here. Fuel and eating establishments across the parking lot. King bed was comfy and 70" tv in the room if you like that. BIG fridge, which was what I needed for my work trip product. Priced affordable and I felt safe.

Had a pleasant overnight stay and a very nice breakfast to get us on our way. A fun thing of interest was a retro-type map of the city next to the breakfast room. By pushing a labeled button of interest, the place of interest would light up on the map, making it very easy to get around town, even without GPS!!!

Just ok

Floors needed to be vacuumed, mirrors were dirty. Beds had no box spring, very hard. Old school key not key card, very outdated, room was spacious but there is better bang for your buck out there
