As strange as it sounds, I actually liked this place in spite of the problems. It is overpriced, especially considering I went in the off-peak season. I was just traveling through, so I just stayed one night. The room was a little dingy/moldy smelling and the A/C unit was in a room by itself. So, the room with the A/C... More

We chose this for it's location and it was a good choice. Our room was recently remodeled and very comfortable and attractive. Lots of pillows, comfortable beds, and a good AC made for a good night sleep before our manatee swim. The receptionist was friendly and helpful, the breakfast personnel were, too, and the breakfast offered good choices. Yogurt, fruit,... More

My wife and I and several friends have stayed here on two separate but virtually indentical trips. Our goal on each trip was to swim with manatees. This hotel is perfect for that. First, the hotel is no resort. It is, however, better than the average Best Western I've experienced in recent years. It's clean and comfortable and I believe... More

We had a very nice stay at this hotel and really enjoyed being right on the Crystal River. We really liked being able to barbecue our dinner right next to the water. Overall a wonderful experience to stay at this hotel. I would highly recommend to anyone to stay there!!! More

This is our 4th trip to Crystal River to swim/dive and we always stay at the Best Western. Their staff is friendly and courteous, day or night, and the rooms are well kept. More

i agree with the other reports. although the hotel has older decor the location and pool more than compensate. We stayed 2 nights in April. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the room was spotless with 2 very comfortable beds and pillows. The hotel is right on the water front and next to the dive shop offering manatee... More

It is located in a great location…right on the water. We were welcomed by friendly staff. The rooms were average size and had extra amenities like a fridge. This was great as we had a place to put a few perishables. BW was in walking distance to the quaint town and a hop, skip and jump away from Adventure Diving.... More
