Richs Deland Hotels, DeLand

"The breakfast wasn't much to be honest. It is an older property but I expected that. It is real close to the Springs and Stetson. Which is a big plus. The beds are a big old. Could use an upgrade there. If you have a bad back I wouldn't recommend it. For one night and the price it was ok. Plenty of parking."

"Everything was good"

"The room smelled like mildew and mold from a filthy AC. The floors made your feet black, the walls were splattered with old food and whatever else.. dirt, feces and blood, there was cockroaches, the bathroom door couldn’t close because it was warped from water damage. The hallway carpets were black and thick with various spilled substances, everywhere smelled like cigarette smoke. The lobby was covered in animal hair. Homeless people fighting in the parking lot. The people who live there apparently, arebrude and terrifying. The outlets in the bathroom and “kitchen” don’t work.. so I hope you don’t plan on grooming yourself, because you can’t. Which is probably not an issue for most of the ppl there but was a big issue for me. The bed were filthy there was debris all in the corners of the bed frame. The walls had holes that were half spackled. You could hear the people next door. I cannot express enough how bad this place smells. We had to buy pillows from Walmart because their pillows were stained with yellow spots, and had to get mucinex and Sudafed from breathing in moldy AC air. I feel like I need some kind of vaccination from stepping foot into this filthy hotel. And a full refund for the mental anguish the coach roaches on my bed caused. HORRIBLE "

"There was nothing in the kitchen drawers. I didn’t want to cook anyway. The breakfast said that there would be fresh fruit and there was none. I was there for two days. Very nice location very nice room. Forge Garage restaurant was right next-door in the same parking lot. That was a big Plus."

"This will not be my first or second option."

"I booked 2 rooms. One for my wife and I, and another for our adult daughter who was traveling with us. We had a late check-in after attending an outdoor music festival. We couldn’t wait to get checked in and shower. When we arrived at our room, a shower wasn’t possible because there was no shower curtain on the rod. We called the front desk and were relocated to a new room at the other end of the hotel. How does a well managed hotel overlook something as basic as a missing shower curtain? Also, the in-room coffee maker in our new room did not work. Our daughter’s room was even worse. She had no hot water in the shower. They had no rooms left to move her to, so she had to take a cold shower. Then, she discovered the hairdryer didn’t work, so she had to go to bed with wet hair. Also, several lights in her room did not work. While it wasn’t the desk clerk’s fault, she still could’ve been more helpful. She offered a less than full throated apology and had no solution for any of the problems we encountered. The property manager was not on duty when we checked out this morning when I asked to speak with them, and I had to pry the contact information from her so I could call to discuss our situation on Monday. This hotel appears relatively clean, but it is very poorly maintained and the staff seems to have very little supervision. We paid a LOT of money for these rooms due to the high demand during a peak time. Given the serious deficiencies, we should be refunded our money."

"Nice sized room. Clean. Phone in room didn't work."

"This was my second time using this hotel and will not be the last time. This is definetly my go to hotel whenever I go to the Orlando/Daytona area. The rooms are great, the staff is friendly, and the buffet breakfast in the morning is great. I also love how they have 24 hour coffee for coffee lovers like myself. Definetly recommend this hotel!!"

"Clean, convenient and comfortable. Would definitely go back."
