The staff was not bad at all but literally everything else was terrible. Woke up feeling sick, ac barely worked, just staying two days for a work trip and wasn’t able to sleep at all. Bummed to say the least.
We reserved a handicap accessible (bathroom. King size suite called on Monday to confirm was told there was no such a reservation. I must go back to Expedia trying to correct this issue so I did. In the end, the hotel validated that I had a bathroom accessible room. I got to the hotel. There was no such room. I was told that I could refund my money or I could stay, but there was nothing else you would do for me. I had no choice but to stay. I contacted Expedia who also contacted the hotel & the hotel said that I was in the room I had booked, which was not true and then said that I could cancel through the third-party if I wanted too but there are no refunded policy would remain in effect. I never said I wanted to cancel the rooms. I just said I wanted the room I booked. They gave me a room next-door with a possibility of switching next morning at 8 AM, but even at 8 AM the room was not clean or available completely.. we continued with our plans and when we got back to the hotel at midnight, we were locked out of our room. We had to go to the front desk and proof who we are so that we can get back into the room. That is when we decided we would not stay at their hotel again and we would not give a favorable review.
Worst experience ever. Stained sheets, stained towels, stained comforters and multiple roach sightings. I left within an hour and got a refund for the remaining days. Avoid at ALL costs.

Bad smell in rooms sheets not clean and towels old and stain … water running underneath floor by the bathroom.. nice people bad location
If I could give it less than one star I would, it was disgusting. The room was moldy, the sheets were covered in stains, the covers, the sheets, everything was stained. It was disgusting.
The mattresses were flat, the latch was non-existent.
Security is clearly a concern.
No wonder this was the only hotel not filled.
For the price it wasn’t worth it.
Go somewhere else
Buyer beware.
Location is perfect for going to Busch Gardens. It's an easy 10 to15-minute drive. Our room was updated, clean, comfortable king bed and also had a small fridge and microwave. We stayed with our dog and there was ample grass area to walk her. We had an excellent meal at the Wing restaurant next door to the hotel. I know its hit or miss, but never heard any noise outside. We will stay here again next time we visit Busch Gardens.
The room had an odor when you first open the door. The bathroom was filthy with a dead cockroach behind the door and a huge ant near the toilet. The towels were thin and useless and had grease stains on them. The a/c was from the old days and sounded like a jet engine so you could not hear the tv. The bed was comfortable and the tv was nice. The shower head was nice and the water seemed clean.
