More or less last resort where you want to stay. This hold motel might be out of business in a few years, if they are not doing a major upgrade. There are other options available for little bit more money.

I have probably stayed at more then 200 hotels/motels in my life, and when i tell you this is the first one I immediately left upon entering without even haggling with the owner. I do not understand how this place has a decent rating. We are not a picky family but when I tell my family and I immediately felt unsafe and uncomfortable. This motel looks like you are entering a Zombie apocalypse. Trash yhrown everywhere across from our room. People were hanging out outside their rooms speaking loudly. We walked in and there was literally dozens of german cockroaches crawling on beds, walls, bath tub EVERYWHERE! The room reaked of cigarette smoke even though I told the manager we needed a non smoking room. They keep the AC off when you arrive so the rooms are musty which makes the intensity of the smoke smell worse. The neighborhood is creepy. I understand you get what you pay for but I at least expect to have a clean bed to sleep and feel safe. Do not bring your small children here! I requested a refund through Travelocity but of course did not get a response from the owner as expected.

Cozy and cheap

This hotel was perfect for what we were looking for. We stayed one night while passing through from Miami to Pensacola. The motel is dated but very clean and the staff was hospitable. There are a lot of negative comments about this hotel but if you are looking for a clean, cheap and cozy stay I do recommend this motel.

Place is like an abandoned building. there’s a reason it’s cheap. If you just need a couple hours sleep it’ll be fine but even that’s scary

Perfect stay!!

You may think you've come to the wring place- small, nondescript. You havent! Book and stop here!
This place looks a bit old, but it is CLEAN and the had good internet, which was what I was looking for. The manager and front desk staff were wonderful.
Look, this is a budget hotel. You're not getting breakfast or fancy drapes. There's a bit of road noise, but nothing my ear plugs didnt resolve.
Just come and stay here for an easy, clean rest.

Special Charm

I was very pleased with my overnight stay. I got there early and the manager came out and asked me if I was ok when he saw me in the parking lot on the phone. I told him I was early for check-in. He saw my plate and said oh your room is ready. I didn't have to wait. He was very polite. Yes the room is dated but it brought about a special charm. My main concern was cleanliness and comfort. My room supplied both. For the price I was pleased with what I got.

Excellent place to stay in Marianna FL

I had two rooms on our stay and they were both Extremely Clean ! The staff was super friendly. Although this is an older motel you will not find one any cleaner and quiet to stay at. I will stay here again when I visit Marianna.

We arrived late at night to this property. Drove all around the property and parking area and determined it unsafe, substandard and undesirable. Poorly lit and difficult to even see the office/entrance. Given our assessment, we didn’t even stop but drove another hour to what we found to be much better accommodation. It is outrageous that we had to agree to a non refundable reservation but now understand why as I believe few would stay or pay for such an experience. Also upset that the reviews we read were so misleading.

Clean room

Clean no frills room. If you are looking for a place to stay overnight in route to another destination this hotel will work but there are are definitely NO frills. Plain old timey roadside hotel. It was clean. The bed was moderately comfortable. The pillows were not the most comfy. We felt safe. Quiet. If you want a nicer hotel I would recommend skipping Marianna altogether from reviews of the larger chain hotels in the town. Easy checkin. We arrived after 9 pm.
