Motel 8 Lake City

No trash basket, no coffee maker, microwave doesn’t work, manager was meandering in the parking lot when we arrived, no phone, no alarm clock, hot water is lukewarm, smell of tobacco is extreme.

The photos did not match what the room actually looked like additionally there were cockroaches.

It was very comfortable and the staff was great, I stayed for a month and will stay there again very soon

It was a peaceful stay

Location off the interstate was good. Everything else was awful

Motel was very cozy and spacey. Big tv and nice bed. Walk in shower was great!

It was ok

Run down beyond belief. Shower was barely able to provide temperature and had to mess with the faucet forever to get it to anything except cold. Bed was broken down on one side. No microwave. The only decent part was the TV.

Price was right to just get some sleep. It was quiter than i thought

Property was much in need of renovation. Syaff was friendly and helpful.

this older Hwy motel is in need of work, and new beds.

Terrible! Dirty!

The motel was clean and reasonably kept up, but I wouldn’t stay there as a single woman-with no partner with me. A lot of veterans and workers stayed there and the few women residents? stood outside to smoke and yell across at each other. There were a lot of friendly loud people milling around most of the night outside the door. The room had fresh paint & clean sheets, but the shower/tub hot water dial handle was broken and just dangled from the big protruding bolt. I worked for a while trying to get water from the shower. If the proceeds all go to homeless veterans, it was worth the price for the room. I’m all for worthy causes.

Its a run down area .. Staff was great room was good but area was a bit scary.. A couple was fighting in the parking lot when arrived

the property supports a local veterans non-profit group

I'm a district manager for a restaurant chain in Lake City and visit here twice a month. I always stay at Motel 8 not just because of the price but because for the value you will not find a cleaner room, a better nights sleep and a more caring staff. Yes, its true it doesnt look like much from the outside but as they say "do not judge a book by its cover." You will be pleasantly surprised by how good the rooms are. I dont understand these people who write these ridiculous, nasty reviews because I have never had any issue with this hotel. No bugs, no stains on my sheets, great a/c's, nice flat screens with Roku, and although people who are there long term do converse outside they are nice people and very courteous of others. I know for a fact the hotel buys dozens of brand new sets of sheets and pillow cases every month. Every time I have been there I find a gift basket of drinks, snacks and hygiene products waiting for me in my room and there are always mints on the pillow. I like the staff and the owner because they give an extreme personalized touch. They know everyone there and they treat their guests with respect and friendliness. You are not just a signature. You are a welcomed guest.

Well this is about my 7 th time book at the hotel 😊 I love the room always very clean and the ice cold air it has , especially when it’s over 90 degrees out side , and baby dose too after playing in the dog park , thanks for that baby pool for her 👍🐶 labs they love there water!! Over all I really enjoy the great Hospitality and service you always give me. Great staff Motel 8 !! Looking forward to the next visit , and baby said thanks for all the doggie treats 🐶 🐕.

Being remodeled, nice staff, nice clean room, outdoor free. Only problem would be for short people to reach the AC controls, AC mounted high.

Smerig veel gedoe buiten geen prettig gevoel met gierende banden vertrokken

Quiet! Quiet! Quiet!. Simply a great place to just relax and enjoy the night. Watch a movie on Netflix, grab a sandwich at Subway which is about 10 feet away, and lay back on a very comfortable bed. For a hotel that had been closed down for two years these guys have done an amazing job of fixing it up. I can honestly say this is one of the few hotels I have been to where it's obvious the sheets were clean and new. Even as I sit here they are putting up new drapes, new towels, new shower curtains. It's not a Hyatt, but it's not $300 a night either. The staff gave the word friendly a whole new meaning. we had a gift basket waiting in our room welcoming us, and throughout our stay they accommodated our every need. I had mentioned that I like sugar free iced tea and five minutes later he brings me a quart bottle of Gold Peak sugarless iced tea that they sell in their marketplace, no charge. It's just minutes away from the main part of town where you can find a hundred restaurants, walmart and other shopping. For the money I would stay there any time and will actually do so. What they lack in the extras they more than make up for it in their customer service and peaceful night sleep.
