I stayed here for a lond weekend with some friends and we loved it. The pool area is really nice and the restaurant that looks over the pool is really good and there are a lot of great deals at the restaurant if you are staying there. The indoor pool was also really nice. The rooms were really clean. The... more

If you visit the website of Desert Inn, they will send you a VIP card with all of the things that they will give you for staying with them, dont believe it, you will not recieve the 300 Gasoline voucher, however they will upgrade your room for you, but the rooms are so dirty your upgrade is still as bad... more

My family and I booked at this hotel without checking with Trip Advisor, in error. When we showed up the place and it did not match the pictures on the website unless they were taken 20 years ago. The whole place is constantly moist...floors always wet. Even on the 6th floor the smell of mildew was overwhelming. The room was... more

Last November (2008) I took my son and 6 of his friends to Daytona for his 18th Birthday. The place was a mess, wate standing in the hall from the garage. Tile from the cieling had fallen onto the floor due to leaking water. Pool tables had bent sticks. The pool deck had not been cleaned in what looked like... more

Anyone reading this please believe the reviews. At first, I didn't believe the rooms could be that bad. Actually, they were not bad, they were horrible. I won't write too much I will let the pictures speak for themselves. Dont waste your money. The Florida health department should do a serious inspection on this place for the mold and dirt.... more

After reading the reviews I see that we are the only ones VERY DISGUSTED with The Desert Inn.........The entire property needs CLEANED, starting with the pool deck, the restaurant, and the rooms. We had a "jacuzzi room" on the ground floor. The private patio area was nasty, the carpet and not been vacuumed. The water pressure is so poor is... more

Look, a place can be old without being disgusting. The fact that this hotel has not been updated in any way is not nearly as problematic as the terrible housekeeping and maintenance issues. Yes, you can get an oceanfront room with a balcony. But you won't want your bare feet or hands or any other part to touch any surface... more

The Desert Inn is easily the most disgusting dive that I've have ever set foot in. The room was so musty that the bed sheets were actually damp. We literally had to lay a towel on the fitted sheet so that we could fall asleep. If it wasn't for a few shots of tequila and several beers, we wouldn't have... more
