La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Cocoa Beach-Port Canaveral
We've stayed here twice now the night before a cruise. We love this property for its cleanliness and value and will stay here again, however we really wish there were other dining options within walking distance. Would also love a shopping spot/drugstore for those forgotten items. Not a deal breaker ...
