The sign upfront reads 'under new management' but it was more like under NO MANAGEMENT. The gentleman at the front desk, despite being being very friendly did not speak English. The only word I could understand was 'money'. The room was disgusting and had not been cleaned at all. There were cigarette buds in the bathroom and the toilet was dirty. I did not dare to step into that shower. Fridge and microwave were equally dirty with stains from god knows how long ago. Places like this should be illegal.

Only accepting cash, so you'll need that at hand. Not bad for a comfortable nights stay. Few eating options close by. $175 a week if you need a cheap place to hang low.

A no-frill little thumbnail sized joint
This place was crazy far off the highway. Like 40 miles one way off in nowhere. An old old old ancient relic. Yes.... no joke! First thing I saw was a roach upon entering my typewriter case size room. For a very small typewrite! Its a place only good for an emergency stop. Way overpriced. Would never stay there again.

This is a no frills motel. Its quite old and outdated. You can get a little cleaning service as long as you request it the day prior. In the room I stayed the AC unit worked quiet well which was great in Florida. The bathroom needs upgrading badly. The sink is one of those old fashion ones where there is a spout for cold water and another for hot. The toilet is the biggest problem. An adult male can has to turn slightly to sit. Probablybbe the same case for a female. I also had to flush 5 to 6 times to clear the toilet

Just sleep In your car
When I first arrived I was rudely greeted by the service desk manager (Samantha). She told me to park in the guest check in parking spot or to move my car and leave. I sat in my car for approximately 10 minutes to finish my food as I had just got off of work before I checked in and I was stared at through the office window until I finally came inside. I guess they thought I didn’t really have a reservation. When I got inside Samantha was very nice nasty while booking me for my room. I still shrugged it off. The rules clearly says no smoking but people are smoking on the outside directly in front of your room. I had room number #17 and the air conditioner was very loud, the comforter had burn marks on them from people previously smoking in the room. The bathroom had roaches crawling everywhere and I’m allergic to them. I literally stayed for less than 4 hours before I asked for a refund for the remainder of my stay which was two days. The bed also had bed bugs. I would recommend anyone to just find another motel or to simply sleep in their car. The price isn’t worth the hassle you’ll be put through.

Better to sleep in your car.
Just a horrible place. The locals all told me the place was a hole, after I'd booked thru hotels.com. I must have killed a dozen roaches. I kept banging my shins on the homemade bed frame, to the point I was bleeding. I made a video of it. It WILL be on YouTube. Don't stay here. Better to sleep in your car.

This place is a dump. Should not be listed as a place to stay. Sure the sheets and towels were clean, but that's it! It has not seen any improvement since it was built in the 1950s! And make sure you park in the correct spot or a seedy character will come up and let you know. Stinky coffee can ash trays are on the windowsill of every room.

We are sorry you did not enjoy your stay with us. We have made many improvements to the rooms but are limited by the age of the building and limitations of the electrical system. We apologize that these improvements were not to your expectations. We do have limited parking available so we do have to let guests know if they are parked in another room's assigned spot. We apologize for the cigarette butt cans on the ledge outside the rooms but it is preferable to cigarette butts on the ground. We hope you enjoy your future travels.

I was on business. Just needed a place to lay my head. This is a no frills hotel. Folks are nice. YOU'D better park in your assigned parking space though....if not, you will have a knock on your door. The room was clean. The smell was old. There is a small frig., microwave and TV in the room. You will only have 2 towels and a small bar of soap. Bring anything/everything else. The heater is a small plug in on. Suffice. It's like camping in an RV. I would stay there again. Can't beat that nightly price for one person.

Continue on down the road!
Bed was broke down and complete with bedbugs. AC didn’t work well after asking the front desk if it was cold and they said yes. Mold on bathroom ceiling. People constanting sitting in front of my window smoking. Spend a few dollars more and if you do stay pass on room 17!

Perfect for Rockville.
We booked for 3 nights for Rockville Fest in Jacksonville. Perfect for us and location to and from Jacksonville was worth the 40 min drive. Old Motel, clean all basics. Friendly staff. Felt safe. Bed comfy. Will definitely stay again next year.

The lady who runs the place was so RUDE from the moment we got there. I would never stay again and wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone either. You get two flat pillows, we asked if we could get another pillow and she told us if we wanted another pillow to go buy one from the store down the road.

This is an old property. Everything worked, but bathroom door would not close, door security was suspect. Clean, obviously though from a different era. Not sure if we would consider staying there again or not. Perhaps.

I'm very sorry you had an unpleasant stay. We will work to address any pest problems by spraying more frequently. May I ask which room you stayed in so I can address the cleanliness issue? I apologize for the noise of the train but there is little we can do to control when trains pass or how much noise they make. I hope your future travels are safe.
