Old and in need of some more TLC
I will say this of you are use to maid service , valet parking you are in the wrong place. What you have is an older place that can use some more TLC nothing fancy and very laid back. I came in and was a bit rude with my comment “ if this place looks as bad on the inside as it does on the outside I am not staying here”. Well I felt like an ass and had forgotten where I came from.. that being said the manager Shelly was a professional with me and my snobbish comment.. Shelly I am so sorry and I will be back if you will allow me to come back. Never judge a book by its cover.. that goes for anything. Shelly was a. Sweet heart and busts her ass for that place the owner should be happy to have her.

Hotel from Hell
The hotel was a dump. Half of the electrical plugs in the room did not work and the room was shabby with a cheap mattress, pillows and sheets. We were given a sliver of soap that would not foam and then told that they only provided new towels and cleaned the room every three days. For almost $240 PER NIGHT it definitly was not the kind of hotel shown on their web site. The floors in the bathroom were chipped with missing tile, bugs in the bathroom, and mold everywhere. There was a elongated toilet seat which did not match the round toilet. The whole place needs repair and painting. The TV was internet only and the wifi could not handle multile users so the input kept hanging up the picture. There were no comfortable chairs in the room, only two kitchen chairs, except for the deck which were right under the A/C UNIT which was blowing hot air at about 150 degrees. The only place to sit was on the bed. We would never stay there again, I guess that goes without saying. The only positive thing we could say about our stay was that there was a great view of the gulf from the room. Oh, there was no handicap access anywhere in the hotel. Do not believe their internet prices, they add a huge resort fee for which you get nothing. If you want to waste your money book a stay at the Beach Front Motel.

We couldn't check in until 530pm. There was p.enty of waterview but no beach to speak of. Ice machine was out of order and no solution offered.had to go to town and buy our own ice. Although a nonsmoking room, an ash tray was on the small balcony and there was a smoking area at the bottom of our outside stairs leading to our room and quite a bit of smoking around the property including the pool. Dog and cat in office area that waz small. Another couple was there checking in making this space quite crowded and I accidentally stepped on the foot of the cat i couldn’t see when we walked in to this crowded space and the cat bit and scratched me badly . I was bleecing from several places on my leg. I was offered some peroxide and bandaids. In town quaaint but old and in poor condition. We will never go back.

Total property neglect, a sad decline in two years
It had been a couple of years since we last stayed at this hotel. Back then it was a old but clean and quaint place to stay with excellent service. This trip, it was a run-down motel with little concern shown for guest comfort. Air conditioning that fell short, a pool that looked like pea soup, ice for sale (if the machine wasn’t broken), unclean and damaged flooring, overpriced, and if you are allergic to cats, stay out of the office as several cats live there and lay and play about the office. In room coffee station didn’t have cups and the balcony furniture was rotten. Office is only open business hours, don’t expect much assistance then. Bring your own toilet paper! I paid 187.58 for one room x 2. There are several people working on Cesar Key that believe the owner (who lives further south in Florida) doesn’t care anymore. Pictures don’t do the disrepair of floors, doors, bathrooms, electrical outlets the horror they deserve. I’m surprised it has not been condemned.
