The AC did not work its a good thing that we were in the room at night. It was uncomfortable the whole time we were in the room. Th we breakfast was good and the staff was good too.

2/10

I have used hotel.com and the hotels within this establishment. This hotel by far is the worst. I got some assistance from a hotel.com rep.
3-night trip

8/10

The staff was kind, check in fast, and rooms were clean. The hotel definitely shows its age and could use some updates to replace worn carpet or the cabinet for the mini-fridge and microwave. The breakfast area was also much too small for the number of guests. So, I am glad we did not pay more for what we got, and I don't think we could spend much more than just one night. That said, the location was great! The room was clean and the price was excellent. I would stay here again for one night.

4/10

The door was hard to open because the key rarely seemed to unlock it. Breakfast wasn't great with limited options, not enough tables for the people staying and not enough room to allow guests to get to the counter. The rooms need updating as they look tired and tatty.

I felt that the location is great. There are several walkable places close by. The area is quiet and I felt safe too. The only down side was the pool wasn't clean during my stay so it couldn't be used. The staff was helpful. I love that breakfast was included also.

It was a great location to sites and airport. The condition of the actual property wasn't the best. Plumbing issues, peeling paint, torn carpets, ac heat unit didn't work correctly, cracked bathroom sink and more.
3-night trip

It was ok for business trip
1-night trip

2/10

We booked a King bed and received our confirmation. We were given a room with 2 double beds. When I went to the front desk to get it corrected, I was promptly told that they had no King beds and I was welcome to go elsewhere. I was stunned. The host seemed irritated that I even mentioned it. I figure they do this all the time and he was tired of guests saying they got the wrong room. Beware of this place. Also, a lifht didn't work and the tv had no signal. But I didn't check with the front desk for fear of another confrontation. It was just me and my 8 year old son. I booked here due to its proximity to Sea World, which we were visiting. I will never book at this place again and am telling everyone of my experience.
