We were traveling up from Miami and got there very late 3 AM in the morning and Kyle was amazing at the front desk. He had all of our paperwork ready and knew we were coming told us where to park with our RV so the check-in was quick so that we can get to bed ASAP hit breakfast in the morning and be out the door. The AM staff was pretty awesome as well.

Not bad for a night or two.

Decent place for a one night stay while in town for a concert or event. Nothing too fancy but the price was reasonable and it suited our needs well.
