Everything was fine except the room key card, which required multiple attempts each time to open the door. It should open on the first swipe!

Dirty floors and carpets, common areas look like they were never swept before they were mopped based upon the amount of caked debris in every corner. Bathroom in room as well. Look outside and theres either a brothel across the way, or its a drive through drug den. Couldnt turn the TV down past 10. Breakfast - "Ready when you are" was not, in fact, ready when I was. They said 630. Lights were off. Food wss out, all the lids on the steam table werent closed, so half of the hot food was cold. The famous cinnamon rolls were twice baked- obvious from previous day, 1/2 dried up and hard. Pretty poor showing for a room that cost 200 a freaking night.

Our room was clean and beautiful. The complimentary breakfast was delicious and served until 10am- later than most hotels. The hotel offered a free shuttle for drop off and pickup at Busch Gardens’ park entrance which was super convenient! I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone staying in the area.
