1876 Heritage Inn

Joe Flynn

Interesting and period renovated hotel that is also a very well displayed postal museum. Manager is obviously proud of the facility.

I was very disappointed in my stay at the 1876 Heritage Inn. There were cockroaches in the bathroom which retreated into the floor, and cockroaches in the sleeping area. The pillows were quite old and lumpy. The worst was the cigarette smell which wafted in the room from the outside. The porch which wraps around the building is dotted with chairs & tables. Each table has an ash tray which is full of cigarettes. There appear to be people who live there, and they smoke quite a lot. The interior of the room was painted and decorated quite nicely, however the floorboards under the air conditioner were water-damaged. The Inn is elevated, so you walk up steps or a ramp to the first floor. Both the steps and the ramp are badly in need of refinishing and repainting. I was escorted to my room by the manager after checking in. I realized then I really didn't want to bring much into the room, as it had an off scent. Their website states they clean the rooms, but "time has its own fragrance". I've been in buildings much older than this one, & experienced the fragrance of time in a well-maintained historic building. This was not it. I realized after I left the next morning that the room smelled of cigarettes. I had to wash everything I brought into the room, including my purse. I use a c-pap, and had to change to a new hose as soon as I got home. If you, like me, are a non-smoker, do not stay here. If you are concerned about bringing cockroaches home with you, do not stay here. This is definitely not a 3-star hotel. I've stayed in 3-star hotels. Believe me when I tell you, this doesn't come close to a 2-star hotel. Maybe 1 star. Maybe. Whoever rated this hotel needs to do a return visit and readjust the rating.

Booked for 3 nights but I stayed one and asked for a refund of the other two. My room had a lot of roaches , it was very frustrating , I was starting to brush my teeth and roaches were in the sink. The roaches were in my bedroom walls. The building is classic but requires a lot of repairs, the wood in my bedroom did not have a pleasant smell. The manager was a nice lady. I had to make reservations in another hotel in Deland to continue my vacation.

Old, and not in just a historical sense. More like a "by the day" housing project. Pictures online of rooms, are far from accurate. Check rooms before submitting payment. YOU'RE WELCOME!
