The hotel room for one night was over $350 and my room had a strong mold smell and a roach crawling across the bathroom sink. This should have been at most a $75 per night hotel.

I live here in Florida, I understand the problems so many of us are having with all of the rain- I’m dealing with a roof leak myself. But the mold and mildew odors in this place are unacceptable. If you have any type of allergies or asthma, this environment isn’t going to work for you.

The staff was extremely helpful and knowledgeable with questions I had about the amphitheater across the street. The room was clean and neat and I slept well. The breakfast had a nice variety, was kept clean and was pretty good—probably one of the best free ones I’ve ever had. I will stay here again when I come down for a concert here. Great inn, great staff.
