This is not a hotel, perhaps it once was, I don't know. But, there is no staff or lobby. You book privately with condo owners. While there for a week, we had 2 overnight fire alarms that we guess were false alarms because no one told us anything and there simply was no one to ask. One was at 2:30-3:00 AM, the other around 11 pm. Kind of scary considering we weren't familiar with the facility. This is an old facility, dated. We aren't very familiar with Daytona, but it seemed in a rough part of town with alot of the cheap $35/day hotels directly across from it. The people roaming around those areas didn't seem to be tourists at all but residing in those hotels. There is also public beach access and parking directly on one side of the condo. If you are unlucky enough to have a window on that side, you will hear anyone and everyone who pulls in there overnight. The pool was out of service for 2 days, we didn't know about this in advance. Very sad to report that our African American son experienced some racism from what I assume was another condo owner in addition to a security guard. We are a Caucasian family, but we have an AA son. The first night, as soon as we arrived, our AA son went down to the pool. My husband, myself and our younger son went down after we unpacked. He was just sitting in a pool chair with headphones listening to his mp3 player. We walked past him and were standing by the gate to go to the beach. A short while later, the security guard came to question him and ask him to leave. Interesting enough, he never said anything to us about leaving. The guard told him no one was to be in the pool area after 8pm. The rules posted did say the pool closed at dusk, but we'd just arrived and were just excited to check everything out and hadn't read the rules yet. Another day, our AA son went back to the condo ahead of us from the beach. Once he walked into the pool area to rinse off his feet, one of the condo owners actually approached him and asked for his room number and explained he wasn't supposed to be walking through there if he wasn't staying there. Who does that? Our AA son is only 18 and not a thug looking kid at all! He had just graduated high school and the trip was a graduation gift. Thankfully, our son refused to give our room number and about the time we were walking up, pointed to us and said, "that's my family." Again, the man never said a word to us. But, our AA son didn't tell us until later what happened. Of course, this same condo owner was drinking it up with friends all day, their table was lined with coolers and the area where they were stunk of alcohol. Those same pool rules that our AA son seemed to violate on day 1 also say no food and drinks at the pool. So, only some rules apply to certain people. I wouldn't even let my kids swim that day because of that group drinking so much. Again, no one EVER approached my husband, myself or our younger son to ask us a single question during our stay. But, our AA son was questioned on 2 different occasions. That alone was enough to make us want to leave early. The only good part of staying here was the fact that our particular unit was oceanfront. Our owner took a little pride in his unit so while it was older and dated, the unit was decent. But, all the rest that I wrote above just sort of ruined the week for us.
