There was no front desk to check in or out. And we really liked being able to just go straight up to the room when we arrived and when our stay was over to just make sure keys were left and door was locked. We would for sure stay here again and plan on booking for a few weeks out with our kids.

The room was okay, I check in at 4:30 pm and I walk in to someone mopping the floors which wasn't ready at 4pm. It was pretty wet going in. I had to hunt for the person I rented to give me information about what room I got since they never send me information which room I was going to get. No front desk help anywhere. At my arrival no outside restroom available. All where out of order. The room seem organzie and nice but my toilet didnt work which I had to keep filling the tank with water in order to flush. I text the tentant and never heard back. Called the numbers from this place and they told me to call 911. Like seriously who calls emergency when a toilet doesn't flush. The place itself wasn't terrible to stay in but I won't be coming back to this place. Very poor communication.

The property was very centrally located in Daytona area. We stayed in a unit while we were there. The room was clean when we got there. I did have a few complaints about the room though. The mattresses on the beds were very well worn. The springs, in the bed I slept in, you could feel them through the bedding. The patio door lock didn't work and the wind made the door jiggle during the night. The heater/cooling unit in the room worked the first few days and then it didn't work anymore. We were happy that there was a heater in the closet we were able to use to warm up the room. It was chilly some of the days we spent there. The one cupboard door next to the fridge was broken and when you opened it the only thing that stayed on the cupboard frame was the one panel stile and the hinges.

If you want to enjoy the ocean view, this is the place for you. Of course there was no pool, no gym, the balcony was boarded up on the second day of our stay. All this is due to the fact that the building is at the restoration stage. The room was clean, but the plumbing was faulty. There was no hot water in the kitchen.

For one night it was alright. Temperature in the 30’s and there was no heater except for a very small heater found in the closet. No blankets to be found and no hot water for a shower.

There was extensive water damage. Water was coming up thru the cracks in the tile. NO hot water, even after letting it run at least 20 minutes. Took shower in cold water. Totally unacceptable. This room should never have been rented out. Health hazard, possible mold.

Well, normally, I am very easy to please when it comes to hotels, I will let so many things slide. Overall, my husband and I were content with the property the biggest thing I am not happy about is that my card was overcharged and when messaging the property I got zero responses the entire time I was there, I still have no answers as to why I was charged $40 more than I was supposed to be. The area was hit by the hurricane back in February so a lot of the hotels in the area are under construction. This hotel currently has no pool and it’s just rubble which was fine for us but if we would’ve brought our kids, it would not have been ideal. We were placed in the wrong room Based on the photos. The room was clean and we enjoyed ourselves. The bed was very comfortable, but if you stay here and make sure you bring toilet paper, we only had one roll and we were staying for a whole week we ended up going to the store and buying a pack of toilet paper. My husband and I went down on a very tight budget, so I guess we get what we pay for but just beware if you plan to book you will not get a response from whoever is in charge of these rooms. I’m going to have to call Expedia to get my detailed receipt.

Property had no pool which wasn’t put in listing two out of three elevators not working and had to walk along side the building in gravel and dirt to get to the beach because there is no working lobby. Didn’t even stay there and tried to contact phone number and Expedia and got no reply. Would like to receive a refund because now out of pocket for two rooms.

This property had hurricane damage. This property was not supposed to be rented out per an inspector that came to our room to check moisture levels. The property showed signs of flooding damage; bathroom door swelled would not close, bathroom drawers and cabinet smelled of mold/mildew, drawers showed signs of mold already developing, bottom kitchenette cabinets smelled of mold/mildew. Tile floor grout was filthy in all of unit. I requested a full refund but was denied. Told I didn’t communicate issues, I requested an extra parking pass which I was told would be delivered on day 2 but never was delivered. So the owner communication had issues from the start. I left a flooded home under repair to stay in this property so I do know flooding damage. My family should have never been exposed to these health hazards. I still expect a full refund.

This is not a hotel. The person who owns the property is very difficult to communicate with. His voicemail was full and when I had a complaint about him lying about the room, he stopped answering me. It is not an ocean view as stated in the description and picture. I was told the picture is a "cover photo" and not the actual room. The room is right next to the entrance to the key, and the windows are paper thin. All nigjt we could hear cars and motorcycles passing. The room was pretty clean except the floors. Our feet were black with dirt when walking on them. The pool was closed due to Hurricane Ian. Overall I would not stay here!

Wrong instructions for locking the room. No room key so we were unable to lock door if we left. Had to wait too long to communicate for correct instructions. Mattress was terrible. Nightlight lamp bulb did not work. Full height shower had curtain which was not suitable to keep water off the floor. Did not meet standards for price of room.

Enjoy the worlds most famous beach from first row.
Great hotel for the price range. Perfect location, virtually direct on the beach, with balcony facing east, overlooking the Atlantic ocean. There's no reception, so you can just enter the room with 4 digit code, recieved on mail, up front. Used but well kept and above all, clean and friendly environment. We would be happy to go back there another time...

I liked that it was on the beach. The room was nice & reasonably priced. Overall, I was satisfied with the room, but the check in experience was terrible. There was supposed to be a check in email that I never received before I got there. I had to make several phone calls before I got a hold of the right person to help me & no one on location was able to help.
