Good location, dirty room.

Great location. Very friendly and helpful staff. It was a very short walk from our room to Kings Bay. There were also kayak rentals on sight which was nice. The pool was heated and there was a hot tub as well. Different areas of the property and clearly going through construction or remodeling, and you can tell a new company is working on making it nicer. My single biggest complaint was the cleanliness of the room. The shower was disgusting with dirt and hairs. It was clear that no one even cleaned the shower walls. The shower and toilet room was very tight to move around in. No bathroom fan and some janky remodeling work. The room had its own mini split AC which was nice. Clean the room properly and I’d give the property 4 stars. Due to the condition, I’d say 2 stars.

The staff was excellent. The first night we had a room with no heat and it was only 40 degrees out so we were very cold. The next day the we were moved to a different room and were very comfortable. The hotel is very clean and comfortable.

Dirty

I have never left a bad review for a hotel until now, but this was beyond unacceptable. The room was not clean, the carpet stained and dirty, a moldy smell in the room , even a blood stain bedspread. The bed itself creaked and rattled more than I’ve ever slept on. To top it off, the bathroom was disgusting, with a dirty toilet, and the seat left up upon arrival.

It's an older property, used to be a ran down Best western. The plantation is shut down and this place is actually better fees renting a boat so for the price it's not bad. The staff is great. Wish they had pool towels area but it's not that big of a deal. Crystal River got hammered by two Hurricanes and our stay was far better than what I expected
