"The room had a bad odor when I arrived, and there was a big cockroach on the wall. I killed a 2nd roach the next day and called the front desk, but no one answered the phone. Valet parking was expensive.2020-03-03"
"Great location. The hotel was clean, and overall I liked it, but breakfast was terrible, especially on weekdays. It was a bit better on the weekend, but consider eating out.2022-03-14"
"I was given an adjoining room, and the people in the next room kept me awake with noise. It took two complaints and two visits from security before it was quiet enough to sleep. I moved to another room the next day. The beds were comfortable. The pool was too small for such a large hotel. Rusty's restaurant was fantastic, and there was a small shop open 24 hours a day.2015-06-13"
Clearwater Beach offers many beachfront hotels and resorts along the Gulf of Mexico and also hotels on the water at the inlet. Hotels range from cheap or midscale motels and hotels to upscale resorts.
This Gulf of Mexico vacation spot offers something for everyone. White-sand beaches, a jazz festival, and fun activities for all ages.
Swim in the Gulf of Mexico or take a boat tour to see dolphins. Ride the trolley up and down the beach, and stop to explore the shops and restaurants along the way.
If you're lucky, you'll catch the festival-like atmosphere at Pier 60.

How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
