The pool was nasty there... more

After many, many weekends in Daytona Beach we decided to try the Desert Inn based on the exterior appearance and location (we didnt check tripadvisor.com obviously) My wife and I are bikers and dont complain about much, we only ask for clean linens and bathroom. Minor flaws, cosmetic or otherwise, are ordinarilly overlooked. After seeing this room I was embarased... more

Right when I walked into Desert Inn I knew it was going to be horrible. The decor, which was airbrushed on all over the walls, was horrible. It smelled horrible and just looked all together nasty. Some of the staff were drinking alcohol while working. It only got worse when we arrived at our room. Before walking in there was... more

My boyfriend and I booked a room at this hotel for the Daytona Coke Zero 400 race. The website made it look nice and it was afordable, and seemed to be what we were looking for. We discovered the reviews on trip advisor after we had already put down the deposit, and considering just about every single review was negative... more

THIS PLACE SHOULD BE CONDEMNED. I am writing to the board of health to find out why it has not yet been closed. We went to Walmart to purchase new bedding and cleaning supplies. The carpeting has never been professionally cleaned, the décor is horrible, there has been virtually no up keep to the place, guests spitting in the swimming... more

The hotel is outdated but cute in its own way. When we got to our room the tile floors we very slippery, so my wife started wiping them down. She went through 5 towels cleaning the floor and each towel was black when she was done. The carpet was nasty dirty, beer bottle tops still on the floor. When I... more

We were at this hotel (or scummy place) for the Daytona 500! We booked it online one year in advance. Internet was very deceptive!! The first room we were in had no air conditioning. The Kitchen and bathroom were filthy, the "deck" was scummy and the carpets were dirty. We asked to be moved to another room. The second room... more

OK, so I saw the pretty decent website and thought like many others that this hotel might be a good stay at a bargain price. I got here yesterday and here's my unbiased review. On arrival, my fiancee's first words were "Oh my God it looks like Liberace threw up here" after speaking with management it appears that Liberace actually... more
