Arrived and there was painting going on in lobby that we were not informed would be taking place. Body wash container in bathroom was empty. Breakfast seemed uninspiring with little choice. Muffins or breakfast roll addition would help. Parking was easy but maybe members should get it free. Room was clean but blinds did not work.

We only stayed one night. The treatment I was receiving from Moffitt Cancer Center made it difficult for my wife to rest comfortably. The staff was excellent! The room was right across from the elevator bay, which made it a little noisy. Anyway, all things considered I would probably stay there again.
