I stayed at this hotel in Islamorada for two nights in January 2025, and it was a terrible experience from start to finish. First off, be aware of the hidden fees - there's a Destination fee for each day, along with a state tax of 7.5% and a county tax of 5%, which added an extra $70 to my bill.
The room was nothing short of disappointing. You might as well park your car on the side of the freeway and sleep there because the level of comfort and noise is comparable. Don't be misled by the advertised "low price" or the promise of being "on the beach" - neither holds true. There is absolutely nothing positive to say about this hotel, its staff, or the accommodations themselves. The only redeeming feature is that the A/C and heater function - but, let's be honest, your car probably offers the same.
The staff, particularly Kris, does not make the stay any better. If you must stay here, perhaps only consider it if you're with very young children or pets who won't remember the ordeal, and only if it's your very last option.
Do not stay here with family or a loved one if you care about their comfort or your travel experience.
