Saxony Motel, Daytona Beach

Hate to say it, but the best thing that happened to this place in when Hurricane Charley creamed it last year and it was remodeled. Good or bad, you'll find the following: 1. Larger than normal rooms. 2. 2 large beds in most rooms. 3. A smallish bathroom with tile work from the 50s to keep you amused (but it's clean). Vanities were removed in the remodeling (see below) but I found it funny that the porcelain toothbrush and soap holders are still attached to the wall -- sort of odd since the vanity disappeared. 4. Where the kitchenettes use to be in some units, they have now been replaced with a full length vanity and mirror and a small refrigerator with microwave. Sort of odd since the bathroom is a good distance away from the vanity. Also, the light switch for the vanity area is at the front door, a good 10 to 12 feet away. 5. The only bad thing was the lack of immediate hot water. It takes a good minute or two to get hot water sufficient to take a shower. This indicates a bad central boiler. Staff was helpful and 24 hour security was ever present. You could do a whole lot worse (see my posted on the Seaview Manor).
