“Disgusting!”

1 of 5 stars Reviewed November 2, 2011

I stayed here back in January on a family trip, I can’t believe this hotel is still in business! I heard horrible rumors back in 2002 when I lived in Florida, but I had to stay there to believe them. The bedbugs here are horrendous, almost as bad as the Desert Inn (On the NY Times list of worst hotels in the country!) around the same area! The neighborhood is horrible (Ridgewood is one of Daytona’s worst stretches) and full of prostitution, rapes and drugs - to make it even worse, my deadbolt wouldn’t latch! The rooms are cramped and will make you feel like you’re in a bad 80’s movie. I had to call and complain for my whole stay about the “Free wi-fi” that seemed to be nonexistent. For the price it was just what I paid for, a crab-infested bed. I learned my lesson and will make sure to do my homework next time.

This place is disgusting and unsafe at night. Homeless wander around, and although the room might have been clean, we couldn’t stay long enough to find out more. We were there 15 minutes and had to flee the area because it was so scary. We went to desk, she seemed reasonable about situation, she wasn’t shocked, seemed used to it. I’m ok with cheap! We only needed to sleep a few hours for work and go back to work. This was not vacation time, it was a place to sleep only, yet, we felt so unsafe we had to drive to Orlando to find housing at midnight since everything in town was booked up. I feel bad because it’s a nice family - but this reviewer says, don’t stay here.
