a place to sleep

its a hotel, nothing special, was under construction so they are trying, close to everything you may need including highway access. the room was 8 out of 10, I bring a blacklight and the bed passed inspection but the floors did not, bring slippers or flip flops. breakfast is an up charge which I thought was ridiculous. nice common area for gathering. internet speed was basic. again its a hotel to rest your head. would stay again

My First Stay; Not My Last

It appears to be an older place, yet it was well kept. The room was clean and comfortable. The check-in was great and Elaina was very personable and accommodating. They have a bar and a breakfast (for a cost), although I didn’t use either. It’s not a 5-star spit shine, but well worth a weekend stay.

I stayed in this hotel because I needed to be close to Shands for my surgery. Not only did my room keys not work, it took 2 hours for the AC to cool off the room. Very disappointed.
