This would have been a great visit [ visited 11 months ago]..ac in room 110 bearly cooled ( asked for a fan they dont have any & offered to move us but it was so late declined) ..9:45pm & 10:30ish called office about loud guests in pool the second one call while I was on the phone front desk yelled at the people they had to go because some lady was complaining. Around 9:00 p.m. the roaches started coming out kills about 10 of them before I gave up. Around 4:00 p.m. we went to enjoy the pool and there was people there in the pool area with a dog eating food lots of food and leaving the food on the chairs around the pool area there was also garbage blowing into the pool and around the pool area.. they were smoking and talking about food stamps and drugs and dealers which made me very uncomfortable and I quote "if you ain't coughing it's not good s***" also side note my air conditioner smells like weed. The property itself is cleanish for the most part sadly they still have repaired the lake deck. [ last time they took a $75 deposit this time they didn't take any deposit so that was a plus] There was mold in the bathroom around the toilet and down the side of the sub in the seals... the bathroom toilet ran all night I believe all they have to do is fix the flapper and that will fix the problem. Honestly this coffee would be a good property I'm sad that it has turned excuse my description Ghetto.

Rooms was very nice, but had a bit of concern from staff at check in and checking out checking in my bill was already paid but was asked for a $deposit was not explained why was not told the wi-fi code was not told about any type of breakfast but I asked will my $dollars be refunded and was told yes so next day at checkout 10:55 am I turned key in and ask for refund I was told no receipt no refund I felt like I should have been told to keep the receipt, but I found it and the clerk said it doesn’t have amount written on top of receipt but the receipt clearly had that I was charged $and now it is 12 hours later and my refund is not back in my bank he claimed it will go back soon as her check me out I need my money back in my account I also ran into another lady that her whole refund did not go back into her account so I don’t trust them anymore, and also for three people we had 1 wash cloth and two towels and a hand towel and mat or we supposed to use it on all three of us I did go to the maid and get wash cloths and 2 more towels other than these things it can be a nice place to stay I will not revise until my $deposit is returned deposit was returned two days later maybe because Monday was a holiday

Hotel looks to have been redone recently. Rooms are nice. Looking but bugs. We only crashed for the night for the airport so it was a cost pick. The hotel charged us a different amount than online booking. And apparently that has been an issue from a note posted at the counter.

My day was for a quick night after working a double shift. The rooms basically were clean. However, I did see a critter in the bathroom. Probably nothing a quick extermination can't fix. Overall my stay was great. The lake in the back was a beautiful sight.

Wouldn’t ever think about staying at this location
Old, dark , lots of garbage scattered, random people wandering, 2am someone attempted to break into our room. Smelled strong cigarette smoke and marijuanna bed sunk in and just overall felt very unsafe didn’t take my shoes off to walk on floor. After entering our room we were scared to exit until morning. We picked as close to airport fit early flight. The front desk girl was very sweet and accommodating. There was a beautiful lake behind property.

Did not stay
This room was booked by my husband and I as a gesture of goodwill for an elderly, unhoused man that we have been working with to find housing. Hurricane Debby was on her way thru central Florida and we felt that he should not have to sleep outside during a hurricane. I booked the room and my husband picked our friend up and drove him to the hotel. When my husband arrived, the front desk clerk, Bella, could not have been nastier! She was in the middle of openly berating a fellow employee who was there to be trained. She begrudgingly accepted the reservation, but was angry because my husband wanted to add a night at the cost paid to Hotels.com and refused to offer any discount or adjusted price. She then informed my husband that he would have to wait 1 hour to check in unless he wanted to pay an early check in fee of $30.00 ( almost 1/2 the cost of the room for 1 hour!) She refused to allow our friend to wait for 1 hour in the lobby and told him to "go outside". We were already experiencing strong winds and rain, yet she could not find it in her heart to allow him to sit there for 1 hour! When my husband told her she was being calloused and rude she called the cops! We did not allow our friend to stay her and took him to another hotel that was friendly and accomodating. Avoid Bella the B at all costs!

It is a convenient drive from the Airport. But it’s not worth it. When my husband and I got there they gave us a room which was already occupied. Our second room was dirty and you could tell they didn’t change the pillow cases and sheets of the bed as there were stains. The building its self is very run down.
