Book a Hotel near Fort Island Gulf Beach, Crystal River

Location good, price reasonable. Breakfast lacking.

They upgraded us since it was slow season. Absolutely beautiful

Room was clean. Looks like touch up paint was done and does not match, by several shades. Bed a little hard, but that's just personal preference.

Nice property on the river. Clean rooms. Great amenities. Friendly helpful staff.

The paint on the bathroom ceiling was peeling and the place could use a little updating. Telephone in the room didn't work so could not contact the front desk without using our cell. Some of the plugs in the room and one of the lights didn't work. It is what it is for the type of hotel, but was basically clean and odor free.

It seems like the issue here is partly with Travelocity description, mostly with the hotel. According to Travelocity we booked a "mobile home" that had two bedrooms, 2 Queens and a pull out sofa and kitchen. The image from Travelocity was one of the camping cabins with a loft. According the the campground, we booked a tow behind travel trailer. Yes, it had a kitchen which was adequate for our needs. The biggest issue was the bedding arrangement. These were not queens, and I'm not even sure they were a full full size bed. On top of that, they weren't mattresses, they were travel trailer foam pads. Add to that that the trailer wasn't quite level and the head of the bed was lower than the foot so we had to sleep backwards. No real big issue...except at 6' either my feet hit the headboard, or my head was only half on the mattress. Even when you look at the website for Crystal Isles, the trailer we now know we book indicates 2 queens. The bathroom was a typical travel trailer bathroom on 1/2 scale. Pump toilet, 2x2 shower. Again, adequate but it didn't match the description. The "large deck" was about 4x4 at the base of the stairs, certainly not a deck worth including in a description. The cabins had a deck, not the trailer. The campground took too much of the previous information and tried to apply it to this unit and it just isn't accurate. So why stay? We had plans in the area and no other options. Not horrible, just inaccurate.
