Nice
Many areas around Clearwater are still in the process of hurricane cleanup, but I’m glad I could support the local businesses while visiting. The food at the bar was great, and the staff was incredibly friendly. I wish I had known to request an ocean-facing room when booking, but I only realized that after checking in. My room faced the other side with a view of a gas station—totally my oversight. Also, you’ll need to pay for beach chairs and umbrellas if you want to sit on the beach, which seems to be common in the area. At some public beaches, you might be able to bring your own. Overall, it was a really nice stay!

We didn’t have hot water for 2 of the 3 days of our stay. The staff was rude and unapologetic. I will not recommend this property to anyone which is unfortunate as 2 of us staying here are travel agents.

We enjoyed our stay at Shepherd’s hotel. Very clean and renovated, there is a live music at the tiki bar every day until 12:00am, where you can dance. Two beach lounge chairs and one umbrella are $25, so it not free, free valet parking though
