The room was littered with pet hair and the bed sheets were stained. When this was addressed in the lobby I was told that there was nothing they could do. We checked out and looked for a different hotel to stay.

Great for concerts

It's perfect when you have a concert across the street. Plus there's the WingHouse so you can get some food real easily. We love staying here whenever we have a concert at the Florida State fairgrounds

Came for a concert. The check in was ok. I was surprised i wasn't given a wifi password and by the time i got back, i decided not to ask. There were a couple hairs on the bed, and back of toliet, otherwise clean and 2 small moths on the sheets. It was overall very acceptable.

Will go back.

Won't lie, from outside it doesn't look the best. But the rooms were updated and clean, with a fridge and microwave. And its literally across the Fairgrounds, so you can just cross the street and you're there for your live show. Would definitely go back at this rate!!! Better than driving hours back home after the show. Winghouse in the parking lot and 5 guys a few spots down the road. Great location.

Not fancy but definitely good enough

This hotel is directly across the street from the MidFlorida Arena - so an excellent choice if you are going to a concert. The beds were more comfortable than I expected. The room had a mini fridge, microwave, and coffee machine. Not fancy but definitely good enough.

This place gets a lot of bad reviews but we found it clean, the staff was friendly, and it's a hop across the street to the fair grounds. There's a place to eat right in the parking lot and a connected gas station. We will stay there again for the next show at the amphitheater
