This place is close to I-95, halfway between Florida and New York. Needs updating though. Must have been really something back in it's glory days. Pool, tennis, basketball courts, etc. It's inexpensive to stay here. I wouldn't make it my destination though. Staff is very freindly. More

Ok, so we were never going to stay there but then we had such a terrible experience at a Days Inn just after the Hamer exit, that on our way back North we decided to give it a shot. With our AAA discount, the rental cost us $55.00 for the night and then we were refunded $5.00 the next morning... More

I saw the photos on the website and took a chance that it changed. Only the photos did. The rooms have the air off, smells, and cheap ugly rooms. I asked for the bridal suite since they said that have a suite. It was terrible. If you feel you must go, look at the rooms first before paying. More

South of the Border is an old place, and the rooms reflect that. Aside of needing updating though, ours wasn't in bad shape overall. It was in Kings row, which is two rooms made into one. The price is reasonable for the size of room and the grounds are unique and offer interesting sites to an extent. The A/C wasn't... More

We arrived and checked into a newly renovated king room on their "kings row" the concept was very cool. They took two older small rooms knocked out the walls and created... More
