“Does anyone read these? I was there in 2004 and sent a letter afterward and never received a reply. It was without a doubt the most disgusting hotel rooms we've ever had. Mold, dirt, stained sheets, moldy curtains, bugs, no light bulbs in some lamps, bathrooms a mess. Can't believe anyone would stay in that hotel. Restaurant had no air conditioning said it would be a month before it would be repaired. We had a couple with us who had been in a car accident and were still recovering or we would have moved on and not stayed even the one night. Really a disgusting hotel!”

• The location was wonderful. My oldest daughter enjoyed the pool and the beach.
• The curtains in the room were stained. The decor could be a little more updated.

“I enjoyed this hotel very much. I would come back again. This hotel is very family friendly.”

• Family friendly. Fairly clean. Nice pool. Great ocean views.
• "Kitchen" was very small but worked. Location was too far to walk to shops/ clubs.

“Great little place. Wasn't very crowded for spring break. Very family friendly with a clean pool and direct beach access. Pool deck bingo daily with a DJ playing classic top 40's on the weekends. Too far from clubs and shopping center to walk but close enough for cheap cab ride. Loved the Publics grocery store directly across the street. Felt very safe (even stumbling home at 3 am alone).”

• The lifeguard at the pool was very helpful in finding things in area.
• Made service was bad, ran out of towels, toilet paper, sometimes rooms were not cleaned.

“Was not worth the money, they had hidden costs for parking, $5.00 per day, also $11.45 for some other upgrade not told about. Not happy.”

• A house keeper named Elizabeth who cleaned my room was very kind.
• Not enough dishes, rude activities person.

“The room was not ready when I arrived at 12 pm, my paper said be there at 3 pm. I had to wait 4 hours to even check in. There was not an adequate amount of dishes to stay a week, even asking I did not get them I had to buy. Activities lady was very rude and disrespectful to me on Easter in front of my twin 2 yr old girls. I would not recommend to anyone who is family based.”

• Absolutely nothing.
• The smell and the bugs.

“This is the most disgusting hotel I have ever stayed at. It smelled so bad that I couldn't sleep and ended up checking out after 2 nights although I had payed for 4 and stayed somewhere else (and I was not refunded). I expected a 3 star, average class hotel and I got spiders running around the bathroom, dirty and dead bugs in every corner, hair all over the sheets. The balconies are all attached to each other so for safety purposes you can't leave the door open and man, was this place SMELLY. The bathtub was so dirty that although it was hot and I was on the beach, I didn't shower the whole time I was there. I wouldn't even give this hotel 1 star.”

• Very friendly staff! Convenient parking and location.
• Needs updating and renovations.

“Our overall experience at the LaPlaya was excellent. The location and parking were great (you pay 5.00 per day for parking the security is well worth it) The staff was always very attentive to our needs. We will stay here again! The only con is the hotel really needs to be renovated.”

• On the beach.
• Staff was unknowledgeable and slow.

“I liked that the hotel have a kitchen, it helped save money on eating out. However the hotel property, I dont know if it was just my room but appeared old. Door lock messed up, sliding door didnt slide, and ceiling was peeling. The staff was slow and un helpful, they told me they had no hot tub and I later found out they had 2 outdoor and 1 indoor hot tub! Do they not know where they work?”

• I like the pool/room location. We get and inside pool for rainy days and wife a plus.
• For handicapped people they don't offer help getting a car full of luggage to the room.

“The La Playa is convenient to shopping and food within very close walking distance, loads of undercover parking to prevent getting hit by bad weather, and the pool and pool bar area is lovely as well as the, little known about, heated inside pool which is very nice and slightly used. If you have work to keep up with or just love your computer, having the wife spot in your room is great. This hotel with the full kitchen offers all the comforts of home should you want to eat in your room after a long day of sunning. This is my family's favorite place to stay in the Daytona Beach area and for the price I'll go along with their choice!”

• Coming into room.

“This place is a real dump. After we checked in and they moved us to three different rooms and each one was horrible we left. I think you should never book anyone in this hotel. This should be a 1 star. We would not stay here for free. Sent you an email the night we left and have not heard from anyone.”
