Very good value for money

We arrived somewhat later in the day and check-in staff was very friendly. Checked in and went up to our room which was spacious and well made up. The building itself on the inside looks a little bit out dated, yes the hallway lighting and elevator looks could use an update but nevertheless this is a very good hotel. The free breakfast was more than just a bagel and doughnut. The wireless internet was working without a problem from the bed in the room (people should understand that high speed internet means faster than dail-up and not as fast when they surf alone at home!!). When we woke up we heard the birds singing outside instead of cars and yes it is just one block away from the international drive. I do recommend this hotel to every one who wants a good place to sleep. The only missing thing in our room was a fridge but we are able to improvise and used the ice from the ice machine.

Absolutely NO complaints!

I needed to check in early and check out late due to flight times. I was graciously accommodated. The junior suite was an excellent value and was larger than I expected. The staff made every attempt to meet my needs throughout the week. I was there for a conference and commuted (by bicycle) to and from the convention center.
