This place was convenient fornus since we were going to Busch Gardens. The price was good but we know why. It didnt seem very clean to us. You had to be able to bench 400 lbs to turn the shower handle. Thank God my husband was there otherwise I dont know what we would have done. Walls need paint, tub was stained, tv had no apps so it was cable which there was nothing on at night to watch. The pool was dirty and the hot tub was gross and discolored. The dining room was nice and the food was ok. Staff were all great in every aspect. I wouldnt go back.

This was a clean and well kept hotel. I do not think 350 for one night seemed worth it due to the average room and limited food options. I felt as though paying for “breakfast included” should have included everything behind the counter and in front of it. It was clean and organized and the staff was very nice and helpful.

I think this hotel is a bit overpriced. Breakfast isn’t free, you will be limited to a few channels ( this hotel does not have option to use streaming apps) the rooms are outdated. Honestly the only reason I can see why they price higher is because they are close to major areas such as the aquarium but other than that this hotel really should be a 2-3 star hotel
