The hotel is conveniently located to Busch Gardens and priced better than others. The hotel was clean, quiet and safe - the most important elements for me. The paint could use touching up and it was not the fanciest hotel but I didn't spend much time at all in the room. It was too cold to swim so I can't say much about the pool. The breakfast was okay, not great but enough options.

Hot breakfast is advertised, it was hot garbage! It featured what's amounts to a deconstructed great value breakfast sandwich broken into the egg, sausage,and biscuit then served individually. The juice and coffee were good. 1 small roach in my room also. I killed it so you won't have to worry about if you stay here.

Checked in on 1/30/2026 and checked out 2/1/2026 as I needed an affordable hotel option before my cruise. Thought I lost my wallet, management was nice enough to look at the camera footage to determine what happened. I had found my wallet by the time the manager had came to my room to notify me, however I appreciate the effort he took to do that. Only compliant is some of the other guests were very noisy at night. I would of complained, but I could not determine the room number the noise was coming from.

Everything was great and clean and very nice staff. The only reason why I gave a 4 star is because you can hear the footsteps from hallway and banging of doors of other rooms. Other than that no complaints.
