“Barefoot Bay Resort Motel emphasizes location and convenience. While a few past experiences mention issues that are not in line with the experience the hotel intends to provide, I believe the prime advantage lies in its proximity to Clearwater Beach's main attractions and useful amenities, most notably the closeby Walgreens. For travelers prioritizing access and practical value, this motel presents a reasonable option.”
