It was a pleasure to stay here.
Pros:

The room was very clean and the hotel was very quiet. Publix, Burger King, Golden Carrol, and Dunking were in walking distance. I like that they allowed pets. This was the main reason we stayed here. There is a grassy area in the front on the motel to walk your dog. You just have be careful of the ants and sand fleas.

Cons:

The motel is a little older. The bathrooms could be updated. The tv remote was hard to work. To get to the channel guide you had to turn the tv off and then on again. I am still waiting for my receipt for my stay. I was told it would be emailed. Nothing yet.

Best hotel staff I have ever experienced in the hotel industry.
Helpful, kind but professional.
Very respectful and understanding if you're having an issue outside your stay at the hotel "as I was at that time".

Excellent choice!

No breakfast, but that's nothing when you're staying HERE.

Dirty room. Good customer service.
Pros:

Okay stay. Bed bugs in bed. Dirty sock in closet. They don’t clean very well here and the rooms are too expensive for the quality imo.
