good location, nice pool, lowest price

this was the cheapest hotel around and just a few miles from seaworld and universal studios. they have an outdoor pool and hottub. Our room was very dirty, with many blood/vomit stains on the floor and a water damaged bathroom. There was no fitted bedsheet. However, we looked into other rooms' windows and they all looked much nicer. It was a busy spring break weekend, so we probably got the last room that they normally leave empty and have yet to fix up.

My Personal Opinion

The hotel location was great! Right outside with a short walk you can reach many nice restaurants and gift shops. What I would warn everyone thinking about staying here: DO NOT purchase the breakfast options! It is so basic that after buying this option, my fiancee and I still walked every morning to purchase breakfast. Also I would warn people that the rooms are not very nice... The carpet had major stains, and bathroom was gross, not to mention tv was not a flatscreen and got terrible reception. The bed was at least comfortable, but still not new by any means. What I did like was every morning a shuttle came and picked us up to take us and many other people to universal studios or Disney world. That saved us money because taxi's are ridiculously expensive. If I had a choice to stay here again I would decline... Coming from Illinois and going to vacation... I expected better. Though the price was good... I thought hotels had to stick to a certain cleaning standard... I guess not. Oh and the pool area was ok, work out room was a joke!

Needs a "COMPLETE CHANGEOVER"

Staff had to move us twice before we had a room that was acceptable. No T.V. and bath out of order, no Ice machine ,Elevator "Out of Order" WIFI not available in some rooms, ..... Last time I will "book" an "Non-Chain" Hotel. Should have been One-Star,very disappointed,Paul Bakke

Average Accommodations, nothing special

Had to ask for repair of refrigerator (which was done right away), asked to replace burnt out or not working light in bathroom (which was never done) had to ask for washcloths (none in room on check-in) had to ask for towels (none were replenished during our stay unless asked for) there was no ice machine; it was the oddest room we have ever encountered; all the furniture was mismatched plaids
