Convenient for UCF Parents

We have stayed at this hotel multiple times in the past couple of years and have always had a good experience. It is conveniently located near UCF and the place our child lives. The rates are good, always clean, comfortable and friendly staff. Breakfast is good.

Unacceptable!

First water stain running from the roof by shower. Evidence been there for a while already getting Moldy. Bathtub spout loose from the wall and poor water stream. But I was very upset that someone went into my room and ignored my Do Not Disturb sign on door.

Comfortable stay for a good price

Clean, comfortable and nicely priced property. Room was spacious, and had nice decor. Breakfast was good and staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Only problem we had was the noise from a nearby club, and the people on our floor going in and out slamming the doors until 2 am. Price was great compared to other places in the area.
