Pictures of property are not indicative of the actual condition and appearance of the hotel. Extension cords are run everywhere, the fan in the room didn’t work, and there is quite a bit of traffic making noise coming and out at all hours of the night that at the very least give the impression of some shady activities going on

Dirty floor in the room. Bathroom sink dirty. Every towel and wash cloth in the bathroom was dirty and/or stained. The cleanest piece of linen was the bath mat. Bed linen was musty and made my skin itch. I ended up sleeping clothed, on top of the bed. Was dirt cheap so I guess the common theme is dirt. Venice is a beautiful area, though.

This place is so run down and filthy that we had to leave- we could not stay there. We found cockroaches in the bathroom, the doors had holes in them, the grounds outside were unkempt. Horrible place. Obviously the owner does not care about customers and has no pride of ownership to fix this place up.

The bed was awful. Soft wells on either side and thank goodness a lumpy firmer spot in the middle of the bed. Horrible linens. No lamps (they did bring when requested). Literally 12" between the front of the toilet seat and the wall. The shower was fine. Threadbare towels. No clock, no tissues, no cup for mouth rinsing, no place to put toiletries. Air conditioner sounded like a big garbage truck going through it's gears. Owner was accommodating, but motel was terrible. Never did find the pool. Looked nothing like pictures.

I am sure that this was a fine motel in the time. While they have attempted to upgrade, the a/c is so loud sleeping is not possible. The bath tile is great but the bath is so small. The bed seemed soft but was OK. If you are passing though or planning to spend little time here during your visit, the place is OK but if you need a respite, look elsewhere.

Do not stay here. Water bugs on wall and in mini fridge. Blanket worn out. Sheets questionable. No dresser to put clothes in. Way over priced. We were told at check-in that we should have called them for a lower price. Our next door neighbor said they did just that and were given a higher price. Their sheets had been slept in by others.

Someone must be studying mold growth because the amount of black mold on the tiles in the bathroom is enough for an entire university to have samples. Seems it’s acceptable for everyone to sit out front of their room with a loud speaker jamming some tunes. Wouldn’t be bad if everyone didn’t want to listen to their own tunes right next to each other. The AC pretends to work. But really it’s just moist and warm in the room. Perfect incubator for the black mold.

This motel is perfectly located, albeit fairly old and dated. No water pressure. Very tiny rooms. Old cigarette buts in ashtray at room entrance. With being said, the staff were very nice and fullfilled all of our requests.

I actually was disappointed in the size and furnishings in the room. The photo I saw on line led me to believe we would have more space than we actually had. Still, the room was clean and the Inn conveniente to Historic Venice Downtown.

Property was older and in need of updating. Room heater was marginal and difficult to adjust. Electrical system was dated and needed to be redone. Room was clean and the clerk at check in was helpful. Good reasonable place to stay for a short time.

Property is being renovated and our room was OK, however most of the property looks like people live there. Linens are in need of replacement, however, the bed was very comfortable and the furnishings of the room were newish. It's obvious the family running it is trying very hard and I wish them the best. We had stayed at a sister property a couple years ago (which was also under renovation) but was definitely better kept. They were very friendly and I wish I could give them a better review but would really have appreciated a more informative review before we booked the room.

Service was great! My room had an odd smell, and the bed was old and not the most comfortable I have slept on, but it was OK. I will be back again.

The place is a disgrace and we are surprised it’s allowed to stay open. For almost $200 a night it was disgusting. Filthy bathroom old stained linens and a trailer with the hotels trash in it parked in front of our room for night number two. Dirty and disgusting.

I visit SW Florida for business every December-January and I never fail to include this hidden gem on my itinerary. The location cannot be better and yet it’s affordable, well-appointed, with a friendly and accommodating staff and ownership. I’ll happily stay here every winter on my way to Naples, FL.

We found this to be pretty dirty inside the room. Our main overhead light didn’t work and the towels and sheets had stains so it just had a grimy feel. I think a deep clean is needed because it was very dirty in all cracks and crevices and there were mystery splatters on a few walls. It was also very loud at night with people talking outside our room. Wouldn’t stay here again. Pool was nice and warm but small. The employees seemed nice but I’d rather have them be mean and stay in a clean hotel.

Older motel right on 41 Tamiami, room was clean but bathroom is tiny. Don't expect any modern aminities, there aren't any. While the wifi was slow and spotty, it least it worked (most of the time), the same thing could not be said about the tv. Not a big deal as downtown Venice offers plenty of entertainment options for the evening. Motel is less than a 10 minute walk from the beach (just a few by car) and has everything close by. Downtown is literally right around the corner. If your looking for just a place to stay and nothing else, this motel offers great value for money. But again, don't expect too much comfort. We had a working mini fridge and (assumingly) a working microwave in the room. AC and fan are noisy but doing what they're supposed to do: cooling down the room. Also, bring your own pillows, the ones on the bed were rock hard. Bed itself was fine. We'll opt for a bit more comfort next time.

Both night stands in rooms had smoke stains on them with loose and broken drawers. Some areas in bathroom looked moldy, blind in bathroom was so dusty you can see them with no problem. Big chair in room look really old and dirty. They definitely need new furniture in this room.
