Ok, it could have been worse. In fact, after the night we spent at the closest hotel to "The Base" (Pensacola NAS) we felt that it was luxurious. I especially liked that the room did not smell of cigarette smoke. However, after a few days we rather regretted not paying more to stay somewhere else.

The room was actually pretty nice and clean although there were few amenities. We had cable TV, nice big desk and a nice kitchenette. In fact, for the price, I was not going to complain, but I did not like that they did not give you new towels until you took the old towels down to housekeeping for a trade. I was annoyed that the replacements were not always as nice as the ones we had before. Also, they never come clean the room at all until you check out. What bothered me most was that the neighbors were making noise all night and only stopped when it was time for me to get up to catch our early morning flight.

I should mention that it was within walking distance of McDonalds and Subway. I walked to McDonald's every morning because I need my coffee!

We stayed here last Christmas because my in-laws house was so crowded. We checked in and stayed one night and checked out the next day because the room was so disgusting. When we told the front desk they advised us where the dollar store was so we could purchase cleaner ourselves. They did not refund our remaining days because it was a " weekly rate". So I lost $200 and ended up sleeping on my in- laws couch. Did I mention that I was pregnant during all this as well? Don't even bother being lured by the price, you will regret it.

awful!!!!! there were thugs hanging around the doors smoking at all hours of the day and night and laying in the grass (half of which i do not think were guest at the hotel!) i had to go out and buy a cord so that i could use the internet because the front dest said that they do not provide them! there was a man working the front desk and 9 times out of 10 he wasn't there when you needed assistance. one day i went out and came back to find the front desk worker and his girlfriend(?) were sitting out side smoke and bragging about how they had went and gotten the chairs they were sitting in at wal-mart. (you would think he would be doing his job instead of going to wal-mart to get chairs to sit in outside!?!) there were huge bugs crawling around in the halls and the stairwell smelt awful!! there is also limited parking so if you want a parking spot, get there before dark (1 - because you want a spot and 2 - because you don't want to be in the parking lot after dark!!!!) i was not aware that there was a fitness center (as mentioned in one of the other reviews) but the hotel may have closed it along with the swimming pool! it was no fun to be there in the middle of the summer just to find out there there is no pool to relax in! the hotel also does not supply any dishes, pots, pans, silverware, etc., for the kitchenette so if you are dumb enough to stay here and plan on cooking in your room, better bring everything you need!! the price of the hotel is very cheap but definitely not worth it! stay somewhere else, don't waste your money on this dump!!!!!

The Ashton Inn on 910 N. Navy Boulevard may look nice in appearance on the exterior, the lobby may even make you feel warm and fuzzy. This place is terrible and nothing like the pictures it shows on the web site. Sailors(military) beware of this location. It may be convenient, but Oh so not worth it. Front desk service, yeah it's nice until you sign your name, after that your done. Phone would ring forever and nobody answers, you walk to the front desk and several times I caught the clerk entertaining in the lobby with friends, just jabbering away. I even got an attitude from one of them after I said I had been calling several times. The Gym is a complete joke, it's rusted out, the cables are broken and the treadmills are sluggish if they work. If your concerned about your safety, I'd stick with the gym on base. They also advertise HIGH SPEED INTERNET, well if I was lucky I had it about 3 of the 7 days in a week. I was here for several months taking a C-school on Corry and I had to spend many times inconveniently going to the computer center on base. Nope I couldn't come to my room and relax and take care of business on the internet, I had to go back to base to get my business done. Oh, one last thing; When I did complain at the front desk, I was told I could always go somewhere else. Please!!, use your perdiem and stay somewhere better, a few more minutes drive is definitely worth it. One good thing is it had cold A/C. It didn't help that the beaches were closed either.
