Great location. Needs some upgrades to rooms and TLC to plumbing, in room amenities (coffee machine an issue no mini fridge or mini bar). Staffing was mixed. Some very very friendly others seemed indifferent or annoyed at me (perhaps it’s my face. If so that’s okay). Service industry aim high. Great property that could actually be much much better. Show me what you can do if you care.

You have a wonderful property here, but there are a few areas that could significantly enhance the overall experience. The hotel could benefit from renovations, as the wear and tear are noticeable. For example, our bathroom had a large crack in the tub, and the faucet was loose, giving the space a run-down feel. A fresh coat of paint and general upkeep would go a long way. Additionally, the cleanliness needs more attention. We saw an old bandage on the floor outside a neighboring room for two days, and piles of sheets were left on a table near the elevator—something you’d expect not to see at higher-end hotels. Not having a mini-fridge in the room was also inconvenient. While the facilities need improvement, I must commend the front desk staff, who were very friendly and accommodating.

Wonderful Staff
This is our third time staying at the Desoto. It was our 20th anniversary and our plans changed at the last minute because of Hurricane Milton. When we got there the hotel was packed with people evacuating their homes. Amid the rush the staff could not have been nicer and more caring. The rooms weee clean and comfortable. The only thing I would say is it is an older hotel and the plumbing was a bit off at times (hot to cold to hot showers) Otherwise it was wonderful.
