Nasty even for the price

Only 1000 characters huh? Ok, I’ll try. Even for the low price of $99 per night is way too much. I should’ve gotten the hint when the manager had to explain how to use the two remotes for the TV and about the man out front with dementia and the other homeless people. I had driven for 26 hours and was exhausted and just wanted to sleep. The blankets had stains on them, the baseboard molding was pulled away from the wall. I was so tired I couldn’t pull myself to try and find another place. Needless to say I slept with my clothes on and never pulled the blankets down. The only plus was the shower had good pressure and plenty of hot water (needed it to clean off anything that may have crawled on me). Definitely wouldn’t recommend it to my worst enemy.

I reported this hotel to the ADA , I had to be put in an ICU/CCU for 2 of my disabilities the whole stay, I ask Chris the manger could I stay to the morn of the 15th I already paid around $300 for the 11-14th. She said, “can’t do it, fully booked,”it would have allowed me with my disabilities and hospital stay and the fact the refrigerator gave way and I fell, to get my things together, I feel as a person with disabilities I was not treated equally as the other permanent residence, this room was booked with Expedia. Expedia explained why would they book over you like that knowing you may need late check out for something like could what happened did…. I sent a friend cause she has patients in that area to please ask Chris to put the DND sign on my door knob, she took it down after my friend left, Chris is very difficult to work with after my friend ldid it after about it and ,I paid Cash for the 11-14, I expedia booked through Expedia for the 11-14 and I just simply ask for an extra day to check out the manager Chris said no we are fully booked, which they do not honor. Their refrigerator unit in the room with a frozen bag of Ice fell on me, I did not even complain, I just ask for 1 extra day since when you I’ll with my disability even with my 20/

Beware! Our room was disgustingly filthy and we couldn't stay there. Bed had hair all over it and the chaise lounger chair had stains on it. Bathroom door had a hole punched in it. After inspecting our room we got a refund and left the property.

After checking in, decided not to stay.

The front desk staff was friendly. But the room, including the refrigerator and microwave were in bad shape and were not clean. The floors had not been washed. Everything was in need of a refresh. The amenities were not new and appeared to be used. The staff was nice and apologized and refunded my money. I did not stay. Would not recommend.

C grade hotel in Dunnellon.

It’s the cheapest hotel in the area so don’t stay there with high expectations. On the plus side Chris checked us in quickly and was pleasant but probably overworked as she just came from making up a room. Bed was comfortable but soft, TV, AC and frig worked. On the negative side the furniture is pretty beat, the cheap flooring really creaks and WiFi was very spotty if it worked at all. Everything was superficially clean but in real need of a deep cleaning. It was fine for a one night stay while passing through.
