Hotel staff were very kind and helpful. Hotel was quiet, but our room could have used some updating. The ac unit was exceptionally loud, and the room had a fairly strong unique odor.

If you happy find yourself in Port St Joe & just need to stay over night, this place will do. But overall, the Mainstay is pretty dated & could definitely use a renovation.

Clean and quiet hotel

The room was quiet and clean. I appriciated having a full size refrigerator with freezer for my blue ice I use in my travel cooler. There wasn't much of a breakfast but that isn't unusual these days. The location was excellent. I would stay here again if ever in Port St. Joe.

Mildew infested couches and mattresses

Our stay was ok but we have been hearing accounts of mold infested rooms from our friends. Our room was dated had a humidifier which was strange! Our friends were there w us and they had to go to five different rooms before they found one without mold in couches and mattresses!! This is so unacceptable and dangerous to health!! Horrid!

Great place to stay!

Decided to take a random trip and this place was almost perfect. Great price for a 2 night stay. Very quiet, low key family atmosphere. Nice size room with a small kitchen. Nice friendly staff. Just a short trip back to port st Joe and Mexico beach. I would recommend and I would definitely stay again!
