“Best Price In Town And Great Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 February 2010
1
person found this review helpful

Coconut Grove offered me the best price I could find for a 10 day stay and they couldn't have been nicer. Property is not on the beach so you can save and in October the beach is not tha exciting. Their employees were very nice and provided the level of service I asked for. Room was comfortable and had a nice TV.

“4th room was the charm - sorta!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2010

We were on a road trip of the panhandle coast. It was time to find a hotel and the sign said $35. How bad could it be? Also the restaurant accross the street was Dirty Dick's Crab House - intriguing to say the least! Anyway, the first room we got (supposedly nonsmoking) reeked of smoke and none of the lights worked. So we went back down and asked for another room. The second room refused to open. The clueless clerk came down and tried it also. Apparently the battery or something was wrong with the lock. So she gave us a third room. When we opened this one we found it occupied!! The clerk was clueless and had no idea which rooms were occupied and what condition they were in. Finally the fourth room was OK, though there were muddyfootprints in the bathtub. (We skipped our shower that night). However we did sleep well and the place was remarkably quiet. Oh, and the Crab House was fantastic. Eat dinner there and skip the hotel.

“It's ok”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 August 2008

Well, for starters, The room was ok, some mold was on the walls, the shower water came out very slow & there was a hole, which leaked above the sink. The staff was very friendly and always had fresh towels delievered everyday. Never had to ask for anything. The only problem I had was there were scooters going up & down the breezeway, some late at night. If you want a cheap & pretty clean place just to lie your head, I would choose here. Plus, it's not that far from the beach, a nice walk actually. I would stay here again.

“Roach Motel”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 November 2006
2
people found this review helpful

The sign in the lobby NO REFUNDS should have been a tip.
We walked in flipped the light switch and nothing happened, no lightbulb in the fixture.
We fumbled around and found a switch for the wall lamp over in the middle of the room and when we switched it on the walls were crawling with german roaches. They were crawling out of the television, they were in the bathtub, they were even under the rim in the toilet as my wife found out. After spraying some repellent I had all around the bed, I pulled the nasty spread off and brought my sleeping bags in to have a clean place to sleep.
If it wasn't so late and it took an hour to get anywhere because of road blockage due to a marathon going on, we would have just left.

“A Place for Spring Breakers”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 May 2006
3
people found this review helpful

Eight other friends and I stayed at this motel and didn't expect much for the price we were being charged, but expected a little bit more than what we were offered. This is a place for spring breakers which we were. They didn't care about what we did which was a plus because we were in Florida to party. We had to ask for towels everyday and our beds were never made. The staff brought their children to work with them. The staff was very nice though. It is pretty far from the beach which I didn't expect since I was told it was across the street. I would never have stayed there for anything else other than spring break. The rooms were dimly lit and dirty. There were also bugs. Don't expect much from the place except friendly staff and good place to party.

Stayed March 2006
