Nice location near Busch Gardens with available shuttle service. Our room had a bit of a smell when you walk in. Plus our hair dryer and the refrigerator did not work. Hair dryer was quickly exchanged but I had to get ice a few times to keep my drinks and dairy products cold.

They were in the middle of a remodel and we didn't know. Our room smelled like sulphur? Didn't ask for another room because we were so tired. Just slept there and left.

Nice hotel, well situated for Busch Gardens but very far from anything else. 30 to 60 USD taxi fare to get to places of interest (boat tour, casino, old town etc). Staff was very nice and helpful, calling us taxis when needed as our foreign phones did not work in the US. Would have been nice to tell travelers that they were renovating the hotel, as it was quite noisy at times and very dusty. Mattresses definitely need to be changed, has back pain every morning due to lumpiness and sagging. Probably worth it after renovation is finished.

The property is very conveniently located close to many restaurants and to Busch Gardens. The rooms are very big except for the bathroom. The beds and pillows very comfortable as well. Breakfast bar has a nice selection to choose from. At the time we were there, they have some renovations going on, but that doesn’t bother us. We would definitely stay there again.

Terrible parking fee
I had stayed here in the past. Overall I really like this specific hotel. However, this time around I was surprised by a really high parking fee. This I had not payed before. This Hotel was amongst the most expensive in the area. Having the parking fee on top of that was really displeasing. If I had none that, I would have gone to another hotel. Parking is a basic necessity for a Hotel in Florida.
