Several guests note good value, comfortable beds, strong air conditioning and working Wi-Fi.

Very convenient location, and pet friendly. The room was clean, comfortable, and pest-free, and included micro and fridge. This is not a luxury hotel, but it makes up for it in a hassle-free, convenient, no-driving unless you really want to, experience.

If you understand what you are expecting, then I think you will be please with this property based on: It is well below the price of other properties in this area. The owner lives on property and is very attentive to your needs. It is conveniently located in short walking distance to restaurants and is close to the boat ramp. There is wifi available. The refrigerator worked well and was already cold. If all the spots are not taken, you may park your boat trailer on property. The beds were comfortable. The air conditioning works very well. You may be able to get a late check out if no one has booked your room for that day. Keep in mind, while this is not a modern 5 star hotel, it is very good for the price as rooms can be quite expensive in down town Cedar Key.

The property was clean and the staff was working hard to make everything ok. However, they were very short staffed and the property showed signs of barely recovering from the last hurricane damage. Location was good. On property parking was limited but there appeared to be good on-street parking. Near dock front area.

The lady at the front desk was the sweetest! Our room was clean, checking in was a breeze, as well as checking out. There was street parking as well as regular parking. There was chairs in front of each room as well as two different balcony areas (shared with everyone) with seating for hanging out or whatever you wish.

This motel needs lots of repairs; interior and exterior. It is extremely cluttered, lots of cats at the registration door, dirty appearance. The full size beds were very soft, but worked fine and curtains barely covered the window. The carpet was old and stained. Air conditioning was a window unit with very few electrical outlets; none in the bathroom area. Would NOT stay here again.

For a place that seems to be on the verge of falling down, I will say it seemed clean. Otherwise it was pretty awful. Mold on the ceiling and everywhere around the shower. Flooring warped and curling up. Peeling wall paper. Broken window in the bath with a duct tape "repair". Stairs and balcony felt unsafe. Place really needs a bulldozer.

The property was the worse I've had the unpleasure to stay in. It smelled of pee, A/C was very noisy and the bathroom door was falling apart, paint spatter all over it, no trim and the toliet was not properly attached to the floor. There was also a broken down car parked outside that the owner said was her daughters and it doesnt work, well move it cuz it was taking up a parking space for actual customers. To top it off, they started cleaning or something at 6 AM!! Totally horrible

Cedar Inn is a no-frills, 1950s style motel. Excellent value for the price. Management is friendly and you may meet Mo the Cat, a beautiful yellow fellow. Do not expect new furniture, recent exterior paint job, The 'ocean view' is from a deck upstairs, with a distant glimpse of the sea ... but it's just a short walk to water, in a charming town.

Property is older and a bit run down, but very clean. Cute outdoor patio on the second floor to hang out on. Location was great, close to the boardwalk, restaurants and beach. It did have a microwave and mini fridge, but no coffee maker. Small room and bathroom, but perfectly adequate for a few nights. Beds were comfortable, and staff was friendly.

We were aware that this was not a fancy motel but we were a bit shocked by the holes in the laminate floor and the window in the bathroom missing a large uneven piece of glass. The beds were comfortable and the AC kept the room cool, even if it was very loud. We arrived before 6pm but reception was closed with a note that the key was in the room, which worked just fine. Also when we were leaving Sunday morning the reception was closed.

My wife has mobility issues. She can walk with a cane some but uses a wheelchair on longer outings. That's why we selected the Cedar Inn. Right in the middle of everything and easy level wheelchair pushing. We were in touch with the owner and she provided us a ground level room. Yes, the Cedar Inn is not a brand new place. And it did go through a Hurrican last year. We selected it because of location and were not disappointed.

If you're here for waterfront luxury, you're in the wrong place. If you're down for quirky, quaint & rustic this is your spot. It's a fishing village that's suffered some recent storm damage. This is a vintage motel with just the basics. The innkeeper is friendly & southern hospitality abounds. The ground floor room was clean with the exception of the tub which needs to be completely replaced due to age & likely storm damage. Bathroom area is very tiny, about the size of public restroom stall. Modern conveniences are limited to AC, cable, wi-fi, & a lamp with USB ports. No hair dryer. No nearby chain stores or fast food. Liquor & convenience stores are both walking distance. The nearby restaurants, bars, & shops are fun, a 5 min. walk & EVERYONE is friendly. I recommend this spot as long as you don't expect or need fancy.
