Overall the place was nice, you could tel they try hard to make it nice. They could dim the outdoor lights a little in the evening so they don't come through the blinds at night time though! The evening clerk wasn't very cheery...at all. She was there LOL Breakfast is basically wrapped pastries, fruit and yogurt, juice.....really a continental breakfast. We decided to pass and go to Frenchies!! YUM! The rooms were clean, beds were firm, pillows were decent and plentiful. We only stayed a night, but that's all i'd really stay for if it were a longer vacation i'd stay somewhere else. They hit you with a $30 service fee and another $25 for something else right when you check in....so be aware of that. We did book through Expedia. You can hear people knocking on other doors...thinking it might be your own....BUT as I said it was one night, the price was right until we got hit with the other fees.... Clean, safe, and close to the southernmost point and Dumont st.

We were jolted awake by a faulty fire alarm at 1am in the morning. The breakfast was presented in the small lobby and nowhere to sit except outside but all seats were wet due to rain. Our hotel room was very small and the bathroom had bugs which got into my shaving kit. Although I liked the old style cottages, for the price this place was not worth it.

Ok spot to stay. Tiny room. Weak water pressure in shower but I expected that. Staff wanted to charge me 20$ to park my rental car which I thought was outrageous. Put a 150$ hold on cc as soon as you check in. I’ve not seen the credit applied back as quickly. Tippys rooster was nice being part of motel. As the kids say. This place was mid.

Really sweet little place with fantastic beach access. The beach is a block away but the hotel provides free towels and long chairs with umbrellas. Nice cuban deli across the street. Close to Duval but without its busy-ness.
