It’s an average hotel, the hallways are dingy with an unpleasant odor. The rooms are clean, but overall the hotel is dated and it shows.

This has been my go-to hotel when moving my kid in and out of her dorm at USF. It's a quick 5 minute drive to the school, but also it's a little ways back from the main road so it's quiet. The rooms have always been clean and there's plenty of outlets. The free breakfast is better than average. I have recommended this hotel to other USF parents.

This is a silly complaint but one of comfort. Why are the beds so high off the floor? I am six feet tall and can’t sit on the edge of the bed and have my feet touch the floor. Other than that, everything was great.

I thought the staff was wonderful and the breakfast was very good. My room had a musty smell and the carpet was old and worn. The bathtub didn’t have a shower curtain. I think the hotel with some replacement items would be excellent.
