Great spot and great price

I was surprised with the room. The amenities were great. We needed a room for one night and it was perfect. Only issue was the city broke the water pipe and we did not water to use for awhile. It was on later that evening

Orange Tree Inn is perfect for what we need...a place to rest our heads after a late night. Location is perfect, close to everythin SB has to offer. Bonus walking distance to Garretts (best breakfast). Will stay here again.

Staff was super friendly and accommodating. Room had everything described. It would be nice to have a fridge in the room, but I knew there wasn’t one from the room description prior to arriving. You could put your stuff in a fridge at the front desk with your room number on it if you wanted to. I really enjoyed that my room opened up to the pool and had a little area to sit outside - and that I could just open the sliding doors when the weather was nice, it really opened the space up. Walls were rather thin and I was there over a weekend where the local college kids were doing some kind of celebration which involves late night partying - just unfortunate timing but it was rather loud and rowdy a few of the nights, though I’m sure this is not the norm. Overall worth the price I paid and I would go back to this hotel.

We were issued the same room as another guest..the front desk girl didn't know how to handle the situation. We felt unsafe and was afraid the guy had a room key to our room and we didn't leave our room. We wanted to go out but didn't want to leave our stuff in our room unattended

Heard they shut down for a while now under new management. The beds are awful. I used to come here before it shut down for a while and the beds were the best now you get some cheap metal springy matress that no thicker than a slice of bread
