We had a nice stay here. The location is remote so there are no shops or dining nearby to speak of but that's just the area. It's about 10 miles frim Starke where there are a few restaurants and stores. It's also located next to a travel plaza with gas, a Dunkin and some other fast food options so the basics were covered. We only encountered two employees- check in and breakfast- and both were lovely. Definitely recommend to anyone who has reason to be in the neighborhood.
