The building is neat and different. It’s like being in a small apartment complex. The carpeting in the common areas should be replaced, but other than that, the stay was great. We would stay there again. The GM was very nice and easy to speak with.

Needs update Great location and Management!
Hotel needs a remodel. Pictures on Hotels.com are very old. Room was unsatisfactory but Management quickly made things right and put us in another property and were very professional. Great location, once remodeled this would be a great choice. Is scheduled for remodel this autumn.

This was our first time visiting the island and we knew we wanted to be in walking distance to all the shops and restaurants and beach. The Palmetto Inn is in an amazing location and super convenient. However, the place could really use some upgrades. I had read about the beds being hard as cement and they definitely are. The bedding and towels are basic and not very comfortable. Also, our bathroom was very small. I hope sometime in the future some money and time can be spent enhancing a beautiful, but old, building. I will say the management staff was amazing and only a phone call away when we needed something. Check in was easy at the Boca Grande hotel. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

The check in experience was super. They went out of their way to accommodate our request to put items in a fridge. The accommodation however needs a 100% gut job. The only positive is location. We joked that they charged us $300.00 too much. The rate was $299.00.

Found ants in the kitchen. Air conditioner was very loud. However the convenient location and low price makes this place attractive.

Nice little suite, but the bathroom was very tiny. Lightbulb in the bathroom was flashing, so I had to take one from the bedroom to put in there. Staff was very nice and helpful.

Small bedroom - hard to get into bed, tiny shower. Rest of the unit is nice enough although old, out dated, floors not level. Kitchen woefully under supplied - plenty of (mismatched) dishes and cookware but only 1 dinner plate, 1 spoon, 3 forks, 1 cocktail glass, no wine glasses, a single ice-cube tray. But what did I expect in a bargain unit on such an over-priced island?
