Personal Attention and Excitement Correction
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/25/09
I need to make a correction on the Personal Attention and Excitement review. The name "Travelodge" should be "Travelocity".

Personal Attention and Excitement
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/25/09
For a memeorable time with tons of personal attention and excitement, Gulf Sands Motel is the tops. It is nestled across the highway from the emerald green waters of the beach which is breathing its soft, gentle waves of fresh ocean air across to it. Upon entering my quaint cottageish room I found free drinks in my refrigerator which appeared to be opened and half emptied. There was no reason to be upset about the mold in the bath because the owner assurred us she would be cleaning it off first thing the next day. As to personal attention, I can't remember when I've had more. The owner gave me every drop of her attention as she held her finger approximately one foot or less from the tip of my nose while shaking it vigorously and screaming "No! No Refund. I call cops, you will suffer, you will hear my words. No Refund." Of course we did get to meet the cop who is a wonderful gentleman and we did get most of our refund and we reassigned ourselves to the Main Stay Motel which was great. I have learned to look to travelodge and other such companies for more than cheaper prices and bargan deals, I now also pay attention to their little star ratings and I think I'll start trying to be aware of the places they don't mention at all.

Never ever again
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/09/05
had the bad luck of having to stay at this motel last weekend. trust me save you money and sleep in your car thats about what you get. OK lets start. toilet stops up they hand you a plunger and tell you to fix it. beds are like sleeping in the parking lot really small and rock hard. showers don't drain you stand in knee deep water while taking a shower. the people that run the place have a real nasty bad attitude and don't care but about one thing-getting your money none of the faucets work in the rooms they run all the time. I can understand how this motel can pass inspection. they must give the inspectior a room...... Save your money and stay just up the street at the dixie bell motel its clean the people are real nice and its american owned

The motel we will never visit again!!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/09/05
The location was in the center of the town, and convenient to beach. The management was very rude. The rooms were very nasty, not very clean at all. I would not even let my children get a bath in the tub. The beds were like sleeping on hard boards, and the pillows were very thin and flat. We experienced a plumbing problem and had to plumb the toilet ourselves, mangement would not even fix it. We also did not have hot water to show with.

I stayed here in late March and paid a very decent price for spring break time. There is an attached restaurant and it is within walking/driving distance of a couple others. It is a little place, but my room was clean and had a double bed, table, desk, loveseat, and tv armoire. The beach is across the highway, which I had not trouble crossing, but might be busier in summer. Lovely area close to neat towns.
