The elevator had a big dip that i kept tripping on. They didnt tell me they charged for parking, i noticed it later when I got home. The breakfast was the same everyday. But its free so meh. Just wish they had more options. It was what looked like tukey sausage , scrambled eggs and potatos. Also they had waffles but tbey were soft. I think they had a couple fruit options and some toast and maybe oatmeal. Again it was free but inwish they had different options daily. It was really loud there. I thought the windows were open cause of how loud it was outside. Also cause we were right next to the elevator it was loud all day and night. Also very loud early in the morning with screaming kids cause we were also next to the breakfast area. Dont stay in room 425. Also i slept maybe 2 hrs a night. The beds were not the best but doable. But what really sucked was the hard flat pillows. I was absolutely miserable

Excellent Family Stay! We stayed for two days as a family of six and had a wonderful experience! The room was spacious and clean, with two beds plus two bunk beds—perfect for families with kids. The hotel also offered a delicious complimentary breakfast! There were eggs, sausages, waffles, bread and butter, coffee, and juice—a great way to start the morning. The location was perfect, close to SeaWorld, shopping centers, and other nearby attractions. Everything was easily accessible, and the area felt safe and family-friendly. The staff was efficient and friendly, and we really appreciated how kid-friendly and family-oriented the entire place was. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely come back again!
