Is great if you don’t have kids. Floor turned my crawling babies feet brown. Said to arrive before 6pm for check in or come by office in am. Arrived at 5:50 and the office was locked and closed.

Overall this is a cute, clean and convenient motel. Downsides are two things: First it's next to a commercial cement plant that is noisy in the morning. Second there are numerous drywall repair patches that were not even sanded before painting, baseboard and trim that is unfinished, tilework in the bathroom that is really bad and just an overall feeling of poor remodeling that appears the owners believed was "good enough". I would likely stay in Crawfordville next time unless their other rooms are in better condition.

Quiet

Boutique & Boujee

Lovely relaxing spot. We love the addition of the golf carts to see the marsh. Price made a good value for thanksgiving week

One night on the coast

Nice hotel for one night. Only suggestions - there was no hair dryer not sure if there was supposed be one. Also check out was at 10am. Most hotels have check out at 11.

Very cute modern boutique decor, has nice towels not the typical hotel towels, loved big pillows, loved the convenience of a door code vs actually checking in and out. The only downside was the height of the bed and toilet. The high bed is not good for disabled persons and the commode is too low for bad knees. lol other than that we highly recommend

Good nights sleep!

It was a short stay, but very pleasant. Only thing that was lacking was creamer for my coffee.

Very relaxing

Painted Pig

Quaint, cute, clean and original to Old Florida. Would definitely stay again.

Need a electrician

Lights in bathroom not working. Half of the outlets not working.

Lovely retro-style motel with updated fixtures.

My family enjoyed our stay here. It was convenient to many state parks and public beach areas. The only negative was that there were no kayaks for us to use as was stated in the property description and confirmation emails. If you stay, be sure to try out Posey's Seafood across the street - it was amazing!

Everything was great.

The whole community is run down. The motel was a poorly refurbished motel. It was clean, great water pressure, good beds. Water temps were reversed, shower walls and closet were poorly constructed. Parking was tight. Way overpriced for the community.

It was good. The room needed a small table with chairs to eat. There was cooking abilities but nowhere to sit and eat. Also no luggage caddy to fold out and put luggage on.

Great place to rest while visiting Pancea

The motel was nice, but the bay access was not much to experience. Great if you a looking to get right on the water on a watercraft. But beyond that there was far too little space and far too many bugs to be a reason to stay at the motel. There are nearby beaches where you can sit and watch the sunset.

Nice place to stay for the night! A little small for a family, however, singles on a fishing trip would be perfect!

Decent Stay

Very simple hotel, small room. Clean and renovated.

Excellent stay

Great spot! So many cool rivers and water spots nearby. Jeremy is a great host! Best water pressure I’ve ever had in room 5, i was shocked?

Cute little motel

This was a great place to stay. Very convenient to everything. The only complaints would be the water temperature in the shower. It was either hot or cold not in between and the squeaky bed. Other than that I would recommend this place to anyone. We will be back!!

The rooms were tiny. The door didn't fit the frame. Gaps between the sides and bottom, allowing bugs in and air conditioning out. The bathroom was as small if not smaller than those on a cruise ship. They did a good job of trying to recreate the original motel only it didn't totally work out.

Awesome place to stay!

Awesome decor. Beds extremely comfortable. Great atmosphere!! Would definitely stay again

Loved this place! Quiet, laid back. Will definitely stay again. Beach is just minutes away

Everything was great... a couple suggestions: 1. you need a full length mirror, we bought new swimsuits and would have liked to see my whole body before heading to the beach lol 2. Advertise that hot tub because it never mentioned that and i almost changed my booking because we wanted a pool or something, when we saw the hot tub we were so glad that i didn't change our booking. This place is great !!!

Beautiful 50’s-ish-retro-roadside-motel. Recently renovated and very well done.There are some snacks/drinks in the room available for purchase, very thoughtful. Didn’t anticipate this so we brought our own for an overnight stay. Easy access to a marshy scenic area by the bay on a 650’ walking trail. Might be fishable with a kayak? Basically an Air BnB situation: “No on-site staff” .

Second time we've stayed here in the llast 8 days, and it won't be the last. Beautiful area with great activity options

Needs someone on property if you need help or assistance. Needs more lighting and directions Weekends are quiet but concrete company right next to property gets noisy early in morning on weekdays

It was definitely a different experience. The fact that there is no onsite person to help you with check-in and getting settled in was a little rough Needs to be someone working onsite 24hours or signs directing you to the right room/building nothing was marked or no signs directing you to your accommodations and when it is dark and rainy it’s really difficult to find. But once we got settled it was a nice surprise and we ended up staying an extra night

Fascinating part of Florida. Updated old school hotel with all the conveniences one could want, imho.

Great motel

We absolutely loved our stay at this motel. The staff were very friendly and check in and out was easy. I loved the key pad entry so no need to keep up with card key. Attended graduation in Tallahassee and commute to event was easy enough. The next day my family went to the nearby spring and had a great day. The motel is not perfect but you can tell the owner cares about the customers and had convenient grooming supplies and snacks in the room. The coffee was so good. Ground in a jar not pre packaged so you can made to your taste. We did have a visitor in our room the last night. A huge spider that may have got in under the door as there was a big gap underneath. There also was not much of outdoor seating and patio need an umbrella for shade. Shower was small but very happy it was clean and had hot water. I would recommend this property and would safe again. The property also has houses so great spot for family get away.

It was OK for a boutique type motel. Some cost-cutting was evident as the cheap mini blinds were broken and I had to put a towel up over the window in the bathroom because the slats were missing. Other than that it’s an OK place.

Neat

Would let customers know there is deposit required upfront , not listed on Travelocity. States pay when arrive.

Very comfortable bed! We enjoyed the nice AC and overall cleanliness. Would come back here again. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

We were so HAPPY to be there! A Home Away From Home!!!!

We had never been to the area so we took a gamble. What a great place to stay! The room was configured so nicely, it had everything we needed! Regrettably the weather wasn't good during our stay so we couldn't explore the area. This was another hidden gem we discovered on our trip and we'd stay again for sure!

Quick getaway for the weekend

The people were friendly and helpful. Bed was hard and sofa needed updating. Musky smell in room.

Beautiful hidden gem!

Loved this quaint place. Will stay again!!!!

Prima verblijf voor een nacht als je op door reis bent Schoon alles aanwezig. Prijsverhouding is dan correct.
