Raeann United States of America

Clean and comfortable room at an affordable price.

Ed United States of America

The location is perfect for all the attractions. Breakfast was awesome...needs bacon. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Valerie United States of America

Breakfast was yummy and staff was very accommodating to our needs!

Molly United States of America

Otherwise breakfast was great including the shower and bed.

Kimberly United States of America

Very clean and the bed was comfy. Hotel was a short drive to everything.

Mary United States of America

Staff in this facility is very helpful and they show great customer service. Facility seems well kept , although traces of structural breakdown due to older building, etc.. but cleanliness and prompt service are definitely a plus in this hotel

Stella United States of America

Location, bed & furnishing were fine, room, w/1 window & pool very small. It would feel claustrophobic to stay there for hours at a time. The location appeals to Sea World tourists with children.

Annie Mexico

Parking was convenient, the location is prime to all my work events, and very easy check in.

Angelica United States of America

the bed was really comfy. The person at the front desk was quite nice as well. I also left something behind in our room and they held onto it til my husband could go get it.
