Upon entering our room, we were shocked by its condition. We encountered multiple housekeeping and maintenance issues that were both unsanitary and unacceptable. These included: • Nail clippings left behind from previous guests • Peeling paint • Significant wear and calcium buildup on bathroom fixtures • Mold in the bathroom and windows • A rusted alarm clock • Damaged and worn furniture • Rusted door hinges • A shower that only dispensed scalding hot water Given that the front desk had already indicated there was no manager or maintenance staff available until the next day, we felt there was no point in raising our concerns during the night. We did our best to rest and vacated the property early the next morning. We have documented these issues with photographs and would be happy to share with hotel's corporate office for their review. It is evident that this room does not meet the quality or safety standards expected from a Wyndham-affiliated property. If this property is undergoing renovations, we would expect that rooms in substandard condition would be taken out of service until they are properly refurbished. We hope that this feedback helps the property address these issues promptly so that future guests do not encounter a similar experience.

Front desk and cleaning staff friendly and helpful. The owner/management have let this hotel get very run down. Upon check in, we drove around the back of the building to find homeless people hanging out by the back door. The room itself was very run down, shower diverted didn’t work, Dora and furniture paint scratched off, previously maintenance was shoddy - caulk job looked like it was done by a kindergartner, painter pained around the camode tank. Went in the jacuzzi which had jets but no heat. I cleaned out the leaves with the skimmer. Thought I got it all, but me and my suit were filthy after about 15 minutes. I am reading the reviews and see the comments by management indicating they are in the process of remodeling. That was in May! Maybe they are using the homeless people to do the maintenance! It’s now the end of August and not much looks done.

Not sure if this room had water damage or a cat was trapped inside for days. The room wreaked of some sort of air freshener mixed with cat pee. There were Cheerios on the floor and it needed to be painted and updated. The windows were dirt and had mold on the caulk. We booked the hotel online and paid $180 for the night. I would normally recommend.

Was traveling for an early morning event. Literally was only there a few hours: asked for a quiet room and received one. Ullia was a lifesaver when I realized what I had forgotten at home!! Thank you!

My husband and I stay at this hotel frequently due to it's proximity to Moffitt Cancer Center where my husband is a patient. The rooms are comfortable and clean, the staff is friendly and accommodating and they are very flexible with Moffitt patients. They are also near Busch Gardens so families seem to like staying there when visiting that site.

We stayed for nine nights and had no issues at all. The place is clean and well maintained although it is a bit aged. I would definitely stay here again. It is very close to Busch gardens and has quick access to all highways and many restaurants.

We had a pretty good stay. We originally picked this hotel because it had good ratings, decent location, and free pets. We did not end up traveling with a pet. The hotel is only serving grab and go bags that are somewhat meager now with a bottle of water, two chewy granola bars, fruit salad. It would have been nice if something hot could have been included. I know there are limitations due to COVID. Generally the staff was very helpful and friendly. I was surprised that my brother who is a Wyndham platinum member was told he could not have a bottle of water after 10am when breakfast service ended. I know these are extremely inexpensive. The walls are pretty thin and we could hear the rooms next door pretty well. This was not a crisis. The bathroom doors were sort of 1/2 doors that did not lock but not a huge deal. There were no fans in the bathrooms. It seemed like there was not a lot of privacy in the bathroom as far as sound traveling in and out. Anyway all things considered we enjoyed our stay.

Selected this motel for its relation to the AdventHealth Hospital and its availability of physically-challenged facilities. Worked out perfect in all respects. Rachel was very helpful with information for restaurants and pharmacies. Room was VERY clean.
