I stayed at this hotel because of a group rate for an organization meeting I was there to attend and was traveling with my teenage daughter. I was originally impressed with the cheap rate, but in the end got what I paid for. We spent two nights there.

The hotel parking lot was very dark and exterior lighting poor. The rooms had painted cinder block walls and were reminiscent of an old college dorm room. The bathroom definitely showed its age, although was fairly clean. The industrial/office type carpet was stained and the blankets on the beds were frayed and worn. Our room had a sliding glass door on the back which made me feel unsafe. When asked to be moved to a second floor room, I was told the hotel was completely booked, although the parking lot was mostly empty!

The other strange thing is this is the only hotel where I have ever had to get the TV remote control from the check-in clerk. I felt so unsafe with my daughter at this hotel, that I called every other hotel in town to try to move somewhere else -- no matter what the cost. Unfortunately, it was Daytona 500 weekend and all other hotels in town were booked.

I finally convinced my daughter (and myself) to consider that if we were in post-hurricane conditions, we would be grateful to have a roof over our heads and a place to sleep. Thankfully, our two night stay went quickly and we were glad to return home after our meeting.
