Loved beachside location; very convenient to beach and restaurants. Property advertised renovations but I didn't see anything about paying to park which I totally disagree with at any hotel. Very spacious room and comfortable bed; we would stay here again no problem

Here's a revised version of your review with the addition: --- We had a terrible experience at this hotel. As soon as we walked in, there was dust everywhere from the ongoing construction. When we reached our room, we found it filled with flies. To make matters worse, the pillows were heavily stained, and when we checked underneath, we found hair all over, likely from the previous guests. We reported this to management, who promised to have the room cleaned. However, when we returned, the same pillows were merely propped up to look as if they'd been changed, and the sheets still had the hair and stains. To top it all off, we encountered a giant cockroach scattering across our room. This was easily one of the most unsanitary and appalling hotel experiences I've ever had.

The pool was nice and the steam room was refreshing. However, the sauna did not work and the restaurant was not open and that was not mentioned when we called them. Also, they are undergoing construction in the lobby and that was not mentioned either. They should be upfront about the condition that their hotel is in when people book a room.

We will miss The Castillo Real we remember.
Hotel has been “under construction” for longer than I-75. Jack hammers on Saturday morning… Our balcony had 4 visible wasps nest that we asked to be removed shortly after checking in… I bet a week stay at a different hotel they are still there. AC struggled to keep up, I am an HVAC professional, something was off. The elevator was miserable, the bldg. is only 4 stories. Our 4th and probably last stay. Good luck Hilton.

Not as advertised and beware of parking
I understand the hotel is under a remodel. I can overlook not having somewhere to hang a wash rag in the shower or the paint on the door jam not being done correctly. What I can’t overlook are the dips in the floor of our room that almost tripped my husband. What I can’t overlook is the elevator feeling like the Tower of Terror when my husband, 6 year old and myself get in with an overnight bag a piece. What I can’t overlook is having the trailer hitch being stolen off of my truck while parked in the handicapped spot right by the front door under the security camera and no one seeing a thing or being basically brushed off by the hotel staff (Ben, Rhonda and the hotel manager).

The hotel was under minor repairs, but it didn’t really interfere with my stay. The front desk employees were very nice, and they even let us check in a little early. There are places to eat and shop in walking distance to the hotel. It wasn’t crowded during my stay, and I never heard other guests when I was in my room. The section of the beach near the hotel didn’t get crowded during the week I was there. Some of the outlets didn’t work in the bathroom, and the shower’s water pressure wasn’t great. Still, I’d stay there again. I’m sure the minor issues will be handled once the repairs are all finished.

The property was under renovation at the time of my stay. The front desk did upgrade my room when I called to check if the hotel was opened due to a hurricane Debby. The room was clean and a good size. The view of the ocean and pool was very nice.

Very friendly staff, great location. Restaurant was never open which was a bummer. The WiFi was down for 3 of 4 days we were there. Main floor was being painted while we were there which will be good for future people staying here. The painting was a an inconvenience for us since we were dodging wet walls and painters to get to and from the pool. We had to have room service change the sheets because they were stained after just being cleaned, the blankets had rips in them. The water pressure in the showers was terrible, could barely rinse shampoo out. Pool area was nice and quiet. Location was amazing. Very short walk to the beach and other food/shops. Overall a nice place but our timing made for an unpleasant experience with no wifi, no water pressure, no restaurant and the building being under renovation. We were not warned of these things or we would’ve chosen a different location.

When booked we were not aware they were under construction. Several lights in our room did not work, the vent on the wall was tore off the wall. The beach was being dredged so our view was the dredging equipment. We did enjoy the beautiful pool area & made the best of a less than ideal situation. :)
