Reviews for Village Inn Destin
Review 1:Great location. Across the street from AJ's and Harborwalk attractions. Even though it's on a busy street it's nice and quiet. Waffle House is next door...what more can I say??
Review 2:Musty smell in room,electric to lights and alarm clock would shut off after half hour or so, therefore couldn't use clock, door to bathroom was ripped up along left side bottom. Breakfast wasn't much.
Review 3:Location, bed was great, nice to have frige and micro
Review 4:The WiFi did not work the entire time I was there even though the frontdesk tried to reset it a couple of times. That is one thing I wanted inthe place I stayed and was very disappointed about that.
Review 5:The rooms were very nice on the inside. The pics from the website forthe outside of the building do not match what it really looks like. Iwould recommend still satyibg there as the rooms themselves areremodeled and nice.
Review 6:The outside appearance needs a face life. I was scared when I pulled up. Also, the wifi sucked.
Review 7:It was clean on the inside and the staff was very nice.
Review 8:The wifi was a little slow, and traffic on the highway makes it a bit difficult to turn left out of the parking lot.
Review 9:Room was clean, several features updated recently. Great restaurants and shops nearby.
Review 10:Looked a lil run down, and additional amenities would have great such as onsite bar and/restaurant Wi-Fi was pretty poor as well, difficult to get a decent internet connection
Review 11:The location was great and staff was courteous and friendly
Review 12:Nothing
Review 13:It was very clean , staff found us a king bed and room very polite, breakfast was good, I would stay here again, I enjoyed my stay, location was great, everything in walking distance
Review 14:One of the two rooms we stayed in had paint peeling from the ceiling and an odd smell in the room. The other was fine.
Review 15:The location was great as it was only a block from the Harbor piers where we were leaving from for a fishing trip. The beds were very comfortable.
Review 16:Room cards stopped working 2-3 times and office had to fix,lights in room randomly wouldn't work.
Review 17:Friendly staff, clean room, great location, good price.
Review 18:You pay for what you get.....that being said, the hotel is old and could use an update. The ceiling had several pieces of paint falling off. The beds are knotty. The rooms were very clean and I did not notice any mold or bed bugs as reported by previous reviews.
Review 19:The hotel is right across from the harbor and within easy walking distance of 10+ of the best seafood restaurants around.
Review 20:Security was an issue. During our seven night stay, four of those nights had fighting coming from the parking lot and other rooms. Someone tried to vandalize a construction crews pick-up truck. At one point we considered leaving but decided to park our car in front of the office.
Review 21:Our housekeeper was very friendly and courteous and provided extra coffee per our request during the length of our stay. Breakfast was fresh everyday and well tended.
Review 22:The bed was very uncomfortable. Some local residents use this property for a full time monthly residence . Coin laundry was always full of someone's clothes...
Review 23:It was a cheap place to stay in a good central location . The Waffle House next door is the hotels finest amenity .
Review 24:Bathroom looked like a serial killers dream bathroom!! But besides that it was fantastic, i'll be staying there next time
Review 25:The staff was easy going. The place was cheap, but a great deal. Breakfast was fantastic
Review 26:The floor was absolutely disgustingly dirty! Took a shower, walked around, and then noticed my feet were black. This hotel REALLY needs to clean their carpets... NASTY!!! We left early because of this. The hotel is a little older with some updates, and we would've been fine if the floors weren't so nasty, the bathtub would've drained properly, and if our room would've been attended to.
Review 27:The location is not on the beach, but central to a lot of attractions. You can walk across the street or down the sidewalk to most things.
Review 28:Smokers were all over the place, so that's what our unit smelled like. All plugs were in a multi plug outlet out in the open...seemed a little unsafe. Noisy. About right for the price.
Review 29:The price was great.
Review 30:I took a shower and after walking around the room for 10 minutes my feet were dirty. Wrinkles, rust, cracked ceiling with holes where it joined the wall. Then there was the late night waffle house traffic - so glad we had our young family in a room right under the stairs!
Review 31:The price, I guess. Breakfast bar, maybe.
Review 32:The bird in the office/breakfast area has got to be moved! The smell was so bad that I couldn't eat the breakfast they had set out.
Review 33:Location was great! Walking distance to harbor village and Mcguire's!
Review 34:The staff was very friendly and the manager was extremely accommodating. I ended up having to change my dates last minute, and she was more than willing to allow us to check in a day late. Smiles all around from the staff, and they were very prompt at helping with any and every little detail.
Review 35:It's an older motel, but for the difference in price a 1/2 mile walk to Harborview and Margaritaville was totally worth it. The Waffle House in the parking lot had some of the nicest waitresses I've had in a long time and my husband sent his eggs back 2 days in a row
Review 36:Loudness of other guests. No answer at front desk so had to call the police. People next to us fighting. Would only refund a part of the night manager very rude. Will never stay there again.
Review 37:Location
Review 38:Lighting very low,I could put my contacts in,but I will bring my lighted mirror next time
Review 39:Very accessible to stores,and restaurants,we walked everyday.
Review 40:We spent three days in Destin at this hotel in August and have nothing but good to say. Location is excellent, right next to all night clubs and restaurants. Room was a bit worn out but clean, staff was friendly and helpful. Good value for money.
Review 41:The facility was old...that was not the problem. .Not well maintained,didn't want to take my shoes off in my room!! 1 inch gap under thedoor. Smelt molded!Sidewalks and stairs were nasty! Felt like I needed ashower when I left! Glad it was only in the room a few hours!!
Review 42:I liked the pictures on website..not what you get!! Has not been wellmaintained!
Review 43:My debt card was charged for the first night, not a problem, but when i gave the front desk clerk my credit card for the remainder of the balance, he still billed to my debit card. That was part of my spending money, i'm still waiting for it to clear. Also the hotel is dated it needs updating. We were told that during peak season it sells for $249.00 a night, not worth it!!! We paid $69.00, that's what it's really worth.
Review 44:I liked that the staff was willing to change my room from smoking to non-smoking with no problem.
Review 45:The room smelled terrible; door frame broken from several kick-ins; notwhat was advertised at all. Bed was very old, pillows hard and obviouslyno where near new. Coffee pot dirty, shower in poor condition.
Review 46:Parking was good; noise level ok..
Review 47:I really didn't like the complimentary breakfast - the waffles tasted to much egg to me.
Review 48:The location was good - close to the Boardwalk and restaurants.
Review 49:We missed room service one day so I went to get some towels and they had none and wouldn't have any more for hours. Also, came back from the beach and one of the house keepers used the bathroom and didn't flush or clean after themselves.
Review 50:Cigarette smoke was real bad for a NON Smoking RM. Carpet could use a real! real !! Steam Cleaning, or new carpet.
Review 51:Maid service was x's okay clean towels each day was a +. Front office help was okay could use a little touch up. Maid was real nice about using Air Fit spray for the Cigarette Smoke in the Rm.
Review 52:We stayed there August 13-16 and it was the worst experience I have ever had. We drove 11 hours from KY to FL and had never been to Destin before. The room we stayed in didn't look anything like the pictures and it smelled like mildew and mold. The cleanliness was horrible. We went out for dinner on the first night only to come back to a roach infested room. We didn't notice them when first arrived because we immediately changed and spent the day at the beach. When we returned from dinner there were roaches everywhere. On the walls, dressers and nightstands. As we looked around the room we saw them in the corners of the room and discovered how nasty and dirty the room really was. There was old food under the beds, dirty underwear and socks. On top of it the pool was disgusting. It was also very dirty and I wouldn't allow my children to swim in it. When I tried to speak to the staff about the condition of the room they were extremely rude. They could have cared less. They told me there was nothing they could do and told me if I didn't like it I could check out and stay somewhere else. Which I couldn't because all of the hotels were full in the area. They didn't offer any solution and didn't even discount or give us a night for free for our troubles. I am appalled at the condition of the hotel and the rudeness of the staff. The hotel needs to be demolished and rebuilt. I am extremely dissatisfied with booking.com's advertisement of this hotel because it isn't true. And I am extremely dissatisfied with my stay and feel like my entire payment for the stay should be refunded. Hopefully the better business bureau can and will help me with that.
Review 53:I hated the hotel. There wasn't one aspect of it that I liked. It was a very disappointing, waste of money. I regret staying there.
Review 54:Didn't like that the room seemed to have some mold issues the wall was soft in spots and the bathroom had mold by the toilet
Review 55:The location was great staff was nice and it was quiet
Review 56:Well we paid for 3 nights left after one night wasn't really comfortable didn't ask for tha money baby cuz we booked it for 3 nights but they need to remove tha sofa out of those room it's a mess something was biting me ova all I would not recommend this hotel to no one because I feel like when we first made it there they gave us rm 120 tha lights didn't work it was a mess and there is no way that they didn't no that about that room tha guy Will was a very nice person but I couldn't stay there another night it's like I needed bug spray I don't kno if tha person before me had a pet ir what but I'll neva stay there again so that made us cut our vacation short and that was my first time there
Review 57:Tha pool area is all I liked about it
Review 58:The Desk Clerk was not pleasant We were a three members family group with little children and our rooms was separated all over the Hotel, I truly believe that the Desk Clerk made no effort at all to see that our rooms was even close to each other.
Review 59:The location is great. The Hotel is clean.
Review 60:Room was supposed to be non smoking, smelled like smoke with bad air freshener spray. You could see the splatter from the spray on the walls, phone, TV, etc. Bugs in globe of light fixtures, shower head came off while showering. Place is right next to liquor store, will not stay again, luckily it was just an inexpensive grab some sleep layover spot. Staff was good, just a run down older hotel in a party beach area.
Review 61:Location was good.
Review 62:The rooms were kind of outdated, and the other travelers staying there were a little rowdy. My advice: do not stay in the rooms with multiple beds if you are a single person or couple because it seems that these types of rooms are all on the same side of the building and you WILL hear your neighbors and their loud children! haha
Review 63:The staff was amazingly helpful, and the rooms were cleaned very well. A coffee maker, microwave, and fridge were in the unit.
Review 64:Village Inn is definitely an older hotel. The lobby and rooms can use some updating.
Review 65:Village Inn is close to a lot of nice restaurants and clubs. Some in walking distance. Lots of kid friendly establishments such as water park, go carts and miniature golf close by as well.
Review 66:This hotel exceeded my expectations for the price I paid. The room was extremely clean and upkept, and I wasn't concerned with my son running around without shoes. He also absolutely enjoyed the pool and we spent most of our stay at the pool. The bed was very comfortable as we're the pillows. I'd definitely book here again!
Review 67:The hotel did not have the correct number of days and we lost access to our room. It is also very difficult to contact the hotel.
Review 68:The pool was clean and it was close to where we wanted to visit.
Review 69:The sheets and pillows were fealty and yellow. Me and my boyfriend had to run to the local walmart to buy sheets and pillows, Lysol and bleach. It was just nasty the windows were steamed up. The fee breakfast is not accurate and it's not clean enough to even think about eating or drinking anything. Everything was old dirty and out of date. There is only 1 ice maker which is @ the office. Which was ridiculous. Who wants to come on vacation away from home & deal with that.
Review 70:Location that's it
Review 71:We really had no bad experience to speak of.
Review 72:I liked the location and the laid back attitude. Also liked that when I made it known there were people making noise after the pool area was supposed to be closed, the staff immediately made sure to enforce curfew rules and we were able to rest easily. Also value for the money.
Review 73:1. unsafe...dead bolt had been forcefully removed before we arrived 2. a naked man in parking lot and management wasn't at all concerned 3. homeless people gathered behind the hotel. 4. terrible odor in room
Review 74:the location was good
Review 75:Everything was fine,but I would have preferred the pool area to be a bit cleaner. That said, I still enjoyed swimming and relaxing there.
Review 76:The friendliness of the staff. They let us check in at 2 o'clock as opposed to the actual check in time of 4 o'clock.
Review 77:The rooms smelled a little. Some of the outlets didn't work
Review 78:Rooms were cleaned everyday,with new towels. Beds were comfortable. The price for the room was very reasonable. Overall it was a great stay.
Review 79:Wifi wasn't reliable, it would cut out quite often.
Review 80:The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, the pool stays open all night, and the waffle maker was a hit with the kids.
Review 81:The cleanliness of the room wasn't very good overall, bugs in the room throughout our stay, and the breakfast area wasn't organized very well.
Review 82:The free breakfast, amount of space in the room
Review 83:Disgusting, when we pulled the spread off the bed the sheets had wet spots! The management would not come clean the room or refund our money. He did not come to see the sheets or look at the pictures we took. Just matter of factly said we could leave if not satisfied. We are disputing the charges. The hotel is not even close to what is represented in the pictures online, old, musty, rundown. Yes we have pictures to prove this complaint.
Review 84:Nthing
Review 85:Water pressure in shower could be better air conditioner cover was coming off mini fridge not working
Review 86:The beds were comfy extremely great location close to warf and restaurants all within walking distance desk guy was very friendly and helpful room had a slight odor to it not bad not sure if it has something to do with humidity other than that I say the place just needs updating is all
Review 87:The lights in the room did not work. I reported the problem. Rather than wait for repair, I borrowed an extension cord and solved the problem myself. Too many unsupervised kids around pool were out of control.
Review 88:The facilities were adequate for our needs and the hotel was convenient to our venues. We had 3 adults in the room, as stated in our reservation and, after requesting additional towels, they were provided.
Review 89:Dirty carpet and windows. Drain clogged on the bedroom. Fridge rusty on the inside. It has two chairs but needs at least two more. Lacks of power outlets in the right places.
Review 90:Nice location.
Review 91:The motel was fine . The toilet was a hot mess . It kept over flowing and I plunged it to death . The wifi does not work that great .
Review 92:The beds were comfy , the location was superb , the staff was amazing , the location was safe , the breakfast was fine . People were saying they had only like little Debbie's ... Not true ! There were cereals , biscuits and gravy , sausage , and pastries . So yeah lots of choices !!!!
Review 93:No WiFi in room have ti go to front to use. Carpet in room are old and torn. Room smells due to carpet. Office staff is not helpful or polite. Room cost more then it was worth.
Review 94:Location is good cleaning staff does their job well and they have a pool.
Review 95:Rooms disgusting. The outside of hotel looked creepy. They charged me $165 for one night.I canceled the other four nights. Because the room was so disgusting. They held $420 on my debit card 5 days before they released it. If you want to be in a clean sanitize place this is not the place.
Review 96:Not a great hotel! Our shower drain didn't work and our toilet wouldn't flush and acted clogged the whole time. When we complained about the toilet, the staff gave us a plunger and asked us to plung it! The plunging didn't work because the whole toilet was malfunctioning. The breakfast was ok, because of the waffle maker, and location was fine, but I would seriously suggest spending the extra money for a nicer hotel.
Review 97:Other motel guests were noisy into the night. Popcorn ceiling in our room was peeling off in several places. Faucet in bathtub/shower would work only on shower--couldn't get it to switch. One lamp didn't work at all--very little lighting.
Review 98:Vanity area was very nice. Location within walking distance of Harbor Walk as well as multiple restaurants.
Review 99:Room was filthy. Used up 6 rags cleaning it and they all turned black. Scuff marks everywhere and stains on everything that could stain. Garbage can had mold in it and the sofa table had dirt caked up in every corner. I had to wear socks at all time, which also turned black on the bottom.
Review 100:The location
Review 101:I did not like the location,the amount of money that I paid it should have been a 4 star hotel. No view, air barely work and came home sick due to the air not working. Didn't like staying here at all for the money.
Review 102:The maid kept my room neat and clean.
Review 103:The rooms were outdated. And could have been cleaner...dusty. the linen was clean but dingy. Just wasn't very cleam.

Review 106:It was all fantastic.
Review 107:Continental breakfast...nothing to eat for the Heather eater..
Review 108:It's location to everything was great. People working were very kind. And the bed was so soft after being on beach app day. .AC needed work in room 235
Review 109:Mold in the showers, smells musky and to top it off they didn't wash the top bedding. There was literally what I think was chocolate smashed into the bedding. Disgusting! I had it changed and had I not already payed for the 1 night I would've left immediately.
Review 110:Location. That is literally the only nice thing about the facility.
Review 111:The WiFi connection wasn't the greatest, the breakfast was not enough to go around. The microwaves need upgraded badly as well as the pool area.
Review 112:The location is ideal, which is surrounded by all different things for the family or couple.
Review 113:One am the breakfast food was totally gone before the end of breakfast but the staff didn't put more food out.
Review 114:The king size bed was very comfy. Within walking distance of the boardwalk.
Review 115:My room was not clean when we checked in. (Old food under the bed andfloor needed vacuuming the entire time we were there). The only othercomplaint was we were approached the minute we pulled into the parkinglot by people staying in the hotel asking for money. We hadn't evenchecked in. Shady characters in and around the hotel the entire time wewere there.
Review 116:The location is excellent. Just a short walk to the Harbor Village.Great place to stay for the price. Front desk staff was very easy todeal with and most helpful.
Review 117:It would of been better if we had a wifi and I didnt have to ask for a coffee maker for our room.
Review 118:I've stated in cheaper hotels were it was allot better.
Review 119:The room was really humid and stuff were getting damp, even the stuff that were kept in a bag or suitcase that was closed were damp. Towels that weren't even used were wet.
Review 120:Breakfast was delicious, had a variety of choices to pick from. Room service was good.
Review 121:Wifi was very unreliable. Key cards did not work well. Needs more ice machines, could only find one between several buildings.
Review 122:The inside was nicer than expected. Room cleaning service was good.
Review 123:Room seemed damp. Not enuff lounge chairs. Bathroom is small. With :45 left in the allotted time, there were no breakfast items...other than waffles.
Review 124:Price was fair. We were within walking distance of Harbor Walk, AJ's and more. Very near Target, grocery stores, and restaurants. Pretty close to Ft Walton. Seemed American operated.
Review 125:Outdated. Old carpet. Had to hold the toilet down to flush. Oder in room. Ceilings cracking. Cracks in base board. For some reason they had carpet going around the base board.old comforters on bed.
Review 126:Breakfast was great.pool very nice. Washer and dryer.
Review 127:For the money it is the perfect place to stay that is close to the harbor walk and beach. If you just need a place to showe and sleep that is clean and safe this is your spot.
Review 128:c Carpet was not clean, nor vacuumed for the four days we were there. Beds never changed. First night room not cleaned, had to go to the office for towels and linens. Next evening go for toilet paper. Stool had to hold down handle for flushing. Also leaked on floor when flushed. Musky odor in room, we bought spray which helped
Review 129:room had very quick hot water
Review 130:Reserved a king bed.......Given a room with two doubles. Check in extremely slow
Review 131:Traveling through.....1 night stay. Convenient to highway and good restaurant
Review 132:Might be noisy early in the morning if your neighbors are fishermen with all that loads of stuff.
Review 133:Nice hotel. Close to harbour walk. Beaches are nearby. They have a free beach shuttle but did not try it since I had my own vehicle.
Review 134:Poor lighting. There weren't enough outlets and nowhere to plug inlamp that was there. You have to wear shoes while inside or bottoms offeet turn black. Too many appliances plugged into one outlet extender. Inoticed this, but turned on coffee pot anyways. After making coffee weturned it off, even checked twice. When we left and came back they wereairing out our room. Maintenance guy was nice when he told us coffee potwas left on and it melted all wires, ruined microwave, outlet andfridge. I told him we made sure it was off, light was off and he saidthey're supposed to shut off automatically anyways, not really ourfault. So, we were shocked when we were charged an extra 236.00 at checkout. I explained that we turned it off, but it was their word againstours. We lost. If you do stay here, which I don't recommend,don't use any appliances!!
Review 135:The location.
Review 136:House keeping was a little rude on departure not only to me but others.
Review 137:The associate at the desk was very courteous, helpful, and informative.I will definitely be staying there again.s
Review 138:N/a
Review 139:I liked how it was so close to the beach and all attractions. The place isn't Hilton material but it's clean and affordable. Great place if you just need a place to lay your head and shower after the beach. I'd totally use them again!
Review 140:They had a family of huge rats living in the trees next to the fence line where my room was
Review 141:The hostess was very helpful with suggesting places to go also told me about the free shuttle to the beach
