Many find beds comfortable and appreciate quiet, simple rooms suited for one or two people. However, rooms run small, parking can be tight, and several guests clarified the property is not directly beachfront or offering ocean views. A few guests mentioned street noise, a loud A/C, or service frustrations. Best for travelers seeking value and convenience over full resort amenities.

We loved our cute little room which is clean and had everything we needed, including beach towels to borrow! Special little details make a beautiful difference in experience. No ocean view, but a short walk to the beach, you can also borrow beach chairs and umbrellas! The courtyard is well kept for relaxing in sun or shade. The Carousel Motel is conveniently located next to an ocean themed bar, bbq grill place with good food and drinks. The motel is also right next to a trolley stop which we used to visit other beaches and restaurants up and down from Clearwater to st Pete’s beach. We will stay here again if we come to the same area!

Room was very clean. Had coffee pot microwave hot plate queen bed pull out sofa. Was minutes walk to the beach very convenient. Parking upfront was a little tight to get out especially around extended cab vehicles. Overall place was a win. Drawback was a lot of people outside in front of motel, smoking, and walls worth and could hear all conversations

When we booked our stay, we thought it was directly on the beach from the pictures on the site. Alas, it was not on the beach, but there was beach access nearby. They also happily provide beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. We also borrowed their wagon to haul everything to the beach. There is also no pool. The rooms were spotless, the service friendly and responsive.

Carousel was exactly as described and as shown in photos. The kitchenette and BBQ came in really handy to have easy meals in the room or on the garden patio. The location was perfect - 1min walk to the (extremely clean) beach and away from crowds/high-rises. Manager was on-site (big plus), answered questions quickly and made sure we were comfortable. The room was so cool, I wish we could have spent more time there. Had everything we needed!

The word motel usually gives a "low standard vibe" however while the outside appears "dated" the room was cleaner than most 4 and 5 star hotels. The location is amazing. Walk to the beach or walk across the street to the intercoastal and drop a fishing line. Some great restaurants nearby that are not chains and if you want you can cook at the room. They have pots and pans, dishes, etc. The one downside is the parking. It is tight. We will definitely keep this place in our books as a place to stay again in the future.

It's an old motel and it's very apparent, but it's very clean. Communication with management is very good. The motel is located very close to a main road which makes it very noisy. It is difficult/impossible to keep the windows open because of the traffic noise. Parking spaces are limited in number and size. The location is really very close to the beach. WiFi was very fast and reliable. In general, this is a low-end accommodation. If this is what you're looking for, you'll be pleased.

We got a very good price on this hotel for a one-night stay somehow, when everything else in St. Petersburg was way jacked up, probably for an event of one kind or another. I think the hotel may have been forced to do some renovations after a recent hurricane, but the upshot is that our room felt brand new, with a beachy vibe, and was absolutely spotlessly clean. It's very rare to have such a blemish free room at this price point, so... highly recommend this place!

This was our second time staying at the carousel. We loved it there. The owner is very friendly, helpful, and accommodating. The rooms are the cleanest we’ve ever stayed in. Very close beach access. Very close to shopping and dining, many options within easy walking distance. We would definitely stay here again.

Very clean and comfortable. Beds were great. Host was very accommodating and friendly. Only negative was we thought it was ON the beach based on description but it's not. There are other homes behind it. You have to walk a little down the road then go thru the public parking lot to get to the beach. No big deal but we were expecting it to be ON the beach. It was at one time before new construction behind it. Still a great little place to stay. Quiet and comfortable.

I was in Room 6 at Carousel Motel for two nights. It looked as if it had been recently updated and painted. It was fresh and clean and had everything I needed. All the important things were there, worked well and were good quality. Comfortable queen bed, very nice shower, great little kitchen with all the utilities, TV, internet, etc. It is perfect for one or two people. (Yet since the sofa was a futon, it would have been possible for more to sleep there.) Judy is very friendly and helpful - and made me feel very welcome. I would come back here again.

I checked in and the fridge was caked with ice in the freezer. It dripped water all over my food in the fridge. Needs to be defrosted. Upon check out, the manager through all my food away. When I left in the morning I packed everything but my laptop and my food. The office was closed. I called to ask for a detailed invoice for my stay, not just a credit card slip. When I arrived my food was thrown in the garbage bins buy select pieces were missing. Suggesting the manager picked through and kept some. She said she thought I had left and forgot my laptop. I had the key, I phoned after she was awake and she had my phone number too. Fighting going on in some suite too.

The staff that we encountered was very nice. And it was an easy walk to beach and restaurants. All in all it was ok for the price, beds could have been more comfortable. We won’t be returning there as we like a place with an ocean view.

We took a chance and stayed in a place we were unfamiliar with.....and it ended up being the very best decision. The place is small but newly renovated and just perfect. It is practically right on the beach, and very close to shops and restaurants. We cannot wait to return for another stay.

The property is located just a few steps from the public beach parking lot entrance. Next door is a restaurant/bar, you can walk to the ice cream shop across the street. The room was cozy and clean.

Very clean and comfortable. Beds were great. Host was very accommodating and friendly. Only negative was we thought it was ON the beach based on description but it's not. There are other homes behind it. You have to walk a little down the road then go thru the public parking lot to get to the beach. No big deal but we were expecting it to be ON the beach. It was at one time before new construction behind it. Still a great little place to stay. Quiet and comfortable.

We loved our cute little room which is clean and had everything we needed, including beach towels to borrow! Special little details make a beautiful difference in experience. No ocean view, but a short walk to the beach, you can also borrow beach chairs and umbrellas! The courtyard is well kept for relaxing in sun or shade. The Carousel Motel is conveniently located next to an ocean themed bar, bbq grill place with good food and drinks. The motel is also right next to a trolley stop which we used to visit other beaches and restaurants up and down from Clearwater to st Pete’s beach. We will stay here again if we come to the same area!

We loved staying at the Carousel Motel! It is clean, quiet and perfectly located within walking distance to the beach, restaurants, laundry mat and Del Bello Park. The room is spacious, comfortable and the kitchenette came in very handy.

Great place for a couple gateways with just enjoying the are and amenities of the beach and local restaurants. The rooms are clean and all the basic accommodation are well organized. Just remember that this is not a 5 star resort, is a great place for a budget and enjoyable.

Nice cozy place. It was a breeze to do everything there because it's a mom & pops place. Super clean and it has everything you need. It's right next to the beach even when it isn't beachfront. Restaurants, bars and everything you needed is a walk away.

The room was recently updated and very cute. It was only a two minute walk away from the beach, which helped to avoid paying for parking. Would definitely stay here again!

Well it is what it is. Very small space with double and twin beds so no room for comfy chair (s). Full kitchen capability tho i didn't use. Appreciate the many beach chairs, umbrellas and towels that was nice. Can't lighting, an under cabinet LED or fluorescent light would be a great addition. Unlikely to stay again.
