This is the 3rd time we've stayed here. We love the garden and the birds. Super close to ITHINK Amphitheater. Great for us concert goers. Walking distance to restaurants and the park.

Room smelled of mildew everytime the AC stopped. Train tracks right across the street with at least 4 trains waking us. For $187 per night this place was very over rated. Room was extremely small, but we knew this as it was properly represented online.

Great receptionist she is very helpful because also my father is out of the country due to being stuck in Pakistan because his ticket was originally for a few days ago, but because of war, they have delayed ticket and we were still able to make the booking work even though he had paid online, I assumed there are other standards as well so. And it has been clean no noise, no pollution no drama so that is very acceptive as well.

Bare essentials, poor water pressure in the shower and bathroom sink. Kitchen listed untensil and in the drawer was packages of plastic gork and knife from some sort of takeout resturant. Very disappointed

Noisy, dirty, roaches, but cute, close to a great coffee shop. Short drive to beach. Probably better than the SIX. Dogs ok.

Room was cozy and clean, property was charming and welcoming. There were plants everywhere and the parrots were fascinating. There's a small patio with two seating areas and a public laundry area. The kitchenette had a sink, mini fridge, and microwave. The one down side, which is completely out of their control, is the trains being so close - across the street. I definitely wished I had ear plugs for the road noise and the train that woke me in the night. It's a very sweet place though with good late night snacks in walking distance. I would definitely stay there again, but bring ear plugs.

Bare bones - didn’t clean my room in between nights, no hair dryer, used just a kcup for coffee and 2nd day it was empty I had to call and wait for them to stock it, parking lot was tiny although extra space in the back. Seems recently renovated but certainly the pics are nicer than reality. Motel style. For me I wouldn’t stay again but I’m used to Marriott’s and hiltons so to me it was way too downscale for the price.

If you’re looking for a great vibe, the barefoot mailman may be what you’re looking for. It feels like old Florida but with modern amenities. The room was very clean, and it had been remodeled recently. We love the birds and the courtyard. The price was very reasonable, and the only drawback of the location was it’s proximity to a train track, but you hardly noticed the train going by went inside the room.

I liked the location and was able to walk to some restaurants, as well as a Walgreens. Thanks to previous guests who had signed into their Hulu and Peacock accounts I was able to watch shows, so that was a bonus. I appreciated the large fridge. Pillows were not great, and the towels were kinda hard, if that makes sense. The other guests were a mixed bag. There was one odd guy who kept lurking about and kept his sneakers and a single cigarette outside his door. He was creepy. That said, I didn’t feel unsafe and no one bothered my car that I parked in the alley. I don’t think I’d stay there again, but it served a purpose and I needed to be in that particular location for a few days, so it worked.

Check in time started at 3. Along with a few others checking in, we arrived at 230. No one in office/door locked. Had to call another number to find out front desk person was at another property and would be there in 10 mins. Website indicated lobby is open from 9 am to 1 am. Very irritating after a long day of travel. Next morning we had no hot water to our room. Found a guy that looked like he may work for the motel and told him of our water issue. He came in and checked things out and found out the breaker was turned off to our room. Had to wait a long while for water to heat up Very inconvenient but was rectified. Then discovered our microwave was not working and from what we could figure out was the plug from microwave didn’t reach the strip plug that looked like it was attached to cabinet next to microwave. As guests, I do not believe it is up to us to figure out the extension cords in a room. No one was at front desk either time we needed their assistance. When I was able to speak to the front desk I explained my dissatisfaction and got a lot of attitude back and was told she manages 2 properties etc. Kept asking what is it that I’d like her to do, etc. with a lot of attitude Just told her I’d like microwave taken care of and hot water. This person needs some hospitality training. Only other issue is the Brightline runs extremely close to motel, as well as a freight train, at all hours. Room itself was very clean.

Pocket door to bathroom had only a bolt to move it - virtually unusable. Breakfast area and paths were pretty and room was large and clean. But breakfast area had no coffee urn, no food, no ‘manager special’, no paper towels, etc.. Expedia of NO help!!!! Won’t use Expedia again

The room was clean, bed comfortable and decor unique! The grounds of this delightful hotel provided a very lovely, relaxing atmosphere. There were 'tropical" plants flowering all over.....and the colored lights at night added a bit of 'majic" every evening. The outdoor coffee area also a very relaxing retreat........with the tropical birds an added treat. This establishment was always quiet, no hustle and bustle, no typical chain hotel noise. I loved my 3 day stay there. Thank you.

Staff was awesome. Both the guy and the girl Breakfast??? Parking was horrible. I had to drive around both days waiting for someone to leave to go to my room. My truck is too long for the extra small spaces in the back. I had to park in the turning lane of Dixie Hwy, put my flashers on, get out of my truck and go inside the office to have the man help me to get to my room. People were outside my door all night both nights and kept me awake. I could hear every move they made in their room and outside until very late. Exhausted the next day. Also, all the weird people that hang outside all night, as a single girl, I did not feel safe

Very cute motel style property with lush bougainvillea plants and arches. Very clean. Unfortunately during the middle of the night some noisy heavy construction started up across the street lasting about an hour. However, this wasn’t the fault of the property, but it was annoying. Also the bathroom sink was very slow draining, filling the sink bowl, and taking quite a bit of time to drain.

1st time stay. Great price! Everything was clean. Great use of space. Pictures were not deceiving. Rooms were individually decorated. Love the shower, pictures, and plants.

The place was so cute at first on arrival. But. As I got into room. Shower or the wall ac unit smells mold. I was so sick. They changed the room for me. But. The same continues. I ended up sleeping in couch. Got so sick with my allergies. Won’t be staying there again

Room was clean and neat. Nothing fancy but a cute room and comfortable. Kind of a trendy vibe on an old hotel. Couldn’t get the TV remote to work. No staff on at night so we didn’t worry about it.

Downsides: WiFi was really inconsistent. Worse: I was traveling by myself and deliberately chose a hotel that was going to have hotel staff present at night, for safety. But unlike the website had indicated, the staff were almost never in the office, day or night. This felt unsafe to me. And maybe worst: When I was in the garden area, I glanced into one of the bird cages and saw a rat eating bird food. I'm sorry, but the sweetness of the birds ends where attracting rats begins. The hotel needs to get a handle on this. I'd already checked out but was relaxing in the garden before leaving. When I saw the rat, I left immediately and didn't look back.

Though this property is inexpensive, I would not recommend. We arrived to no one at the office and it being locked. The manager showed up within five minutes, but still inconvenient. We paid extra for a garden room. Not worth the money. Only one roll of toilet paper provided. Room was updated, but shower only had warm water, not hot and major repairs throughout room were needed. Some of the lights didn’t work the remote didn’t have the battery very cramped and looked as they didn’t finish cleaning. Bed was hard, and no coffee was available. The Wi-Fi router shares an outlet with the top toaster, and gets unplugged. The property is located across the street from the Brightline train track, which goes by about every five minutes. If there are soundproof rooms, I wouldn’t be able to hear it. Therefore not sound proof, rooms, not free coffee, not free reliable Wi-Fi. Basic things that you would expect from any place you stay. Not worth the money at all.

The motel did have those two things. However, the advertised accommodations left much to be desired. Although the room was clean. The shower was small annd dark and there was no hot water. Warm showers only. The area where they had a small coffee maker was located is where they several birds in cages and the bird poop was everywhere. One long term guest told us not to use the toaster that was there because she had seen rats around it in the past. There was a train track on the other side of the road from the motel that ran continuously and the noise was disturbing. We paid for three nights but left after two.

1) We arrived at 11 pm and there was nobody at the reception. There was just a sign with a telefone number to call (no wsapp, just calls!!), what it meant a big problem for us that we didn't have a US phone to call. We had to ask a lady to call for us and then wait like 10 minutes for the guy to arrive. 2) The bedroom had an awful smell, a mix between humidity and lack of fresh air. 3) last but not the least, they charged us more than what our reservation said. We asked the guy in charge and he said there were other fees and whatever, not fine at all. 4) the coffee place very dirty, with birds and dust from days. In conclusion, look for another place to stay. Expensive and doesn't worth it

This is a small boutique-like motel. No frivolous amenities. Decor is good and there's a patio with self serve coffee and live birds. Downside, tv remote was broke and the lamp didnt work. There was no back-up tp roll and the office was closed.

There’s no dish towel; apparently they provide paper towels for that. They still give a towel, but a bath towel… If you are lucky to have a nice neighbor, it’s fine. If not, you hear everything. Our main issue was the fridge not working, and it was a hustle to get it fix. We asked to change the room, because we wanted to be far away from our neighbor next door the fridge that is not working. They agree, but they downgraded us to a queen and no kitchen room, because apparently, it was the only room left. We totally understand, but we asked for a price difference with the suite that we had (kitchen king bed), just to get what we paid for, which is 10$. The owner refused. So, we lost few hours and only the fridge was fixed by exchanging them in between those two rooms… I don’t know which one is worst, the careless/ dirty room or the customer service….oh also it mentioned that there’s pastries in the morning…we didn’t see any…

I was really happy that I went ahead and booked the Barefoot Mailman Motel. It has that you’re at home feel. It’s comfortable. Everything was nice, clean and organized. They have a wonderful coffee bar with tables and chairs. This Motel will definitely be my new spot from now on. I really enjoyed my stay here.

Due to construction at the front Entrance, I was only able to see the backside of the hotel, which was unattractive (a cheap motel feel to them) and hard to find. The Manager on duty was absolutely fantastic! My room was quite nice and very comfortable. I would absolutely stay there again.

Beautiful unit. Excellent up to date interior remodeling. Shower/Bathroom very well done and excellent water pressure in rain shower head and wand. WiFi did not work for the TV or either of our phones. Office phone went to VM and it was full. Called after hours # and he sent a very nice young lady by to let us know the PW had changed. WiFi worked on the TV for 20 mins and then the low connection was lost. Couldn’t reestablish. Never an option to connect phones. Turned AC off and remote would not connect to turn back on. Smoke Detector was missing. Notified after hours guy by text the following morning. He told us to point remote at the unit (which we had tried many times) and that he was sure “it’s an easy fix as they never have issues with them.” No one in the closet sized “office” as we left. We did not have to leave a deposit but another guest leaving when we did at 9AM was not able to reach anyone by phone to return her cash deposit. Very nice unit could use some work on the WiFi, AC, and smoke detector issue along with customer service. Pictures of exterior taken in the best light. Would suggest Google Earth view of the area for best info.

Probably one of the cheapest addresses in the West Palm/Lantana parts of Florida. Adequate for me as a single male but with doors that open to the outside and many nooks and crannies not a good choice for ladies or families. Good marks for keeping in contact with me for updates as my plan was late.

Some pulled up and saw this little motel in the middle of what looks like a questionable neighborhood and my husband was like, no way, what did you do? We usually stay in nice hotels w a pool, but this was a 2-day biz trip and I didn’t want to spend a lot. The clerk was super friendly and helpful, and let us loo at our room first, it was in the middle of a sink repair and not ready, so she showed us another room available and it was great. Spacious, clean, well decorated and full amenities like fridge, microwave kitchen supplies and a nice clean bathroom. We were pleasantly surprised and enjoyed the suite very much. Parking was limited but overall it’s a nice place to stay of the hotel isn’t your vacation place. This isn’t the type of place to stay as your trip destination, but it is a lovely little renovated place that serves its purpose. Thanks for the stay.

We were a little skeptical when we pulled up, typical, old Florida motel feel but the room was newly remodeled, clean and comfortable. My only complaint is that TV options were limited and the "pastries and coffee" others mentioned, weren't offered to us. Would definitely stay there again as it had lots of walkable dining and bar options.
