The staff is very nice and friendly, my son n I stay here often. The buildings probably could be updated and they seem to be working on that. I really have no complaints!
Started with very polite service, and room was ready and clean for use. They made sure we had fresh towels evey day.

The management is clearly spending money to try and update this facility. The location is great for historical sites and the parks. I look forward to coming back in the future to see the improvements, but for this summer, you have to tamper your expectations.
It was very nostalgic… Reminded me of places that my family would stay in my childhood. The staff / Owners were extremely friendly, very attentive to my needs. Would stay here again.
Very spacious, this room surprised me as it had tge bedrooms and bath on a lower level. Feiendly staff and pool was excellent. We will definitely stay again.

Charming little motel with great service ❤️
Awesome customer service, clean rooms, great price, we will be back. Thanks.
The family that owns/manages this hotel are some of the nicest people you will ever meet! The suite we rented was super clean. Conveniently located, simple, and affordable! Had a nice outdoor pool, but my daughter was too tired to swim after a day at Busch Gardens.
My kids & I stayed 4 different places within one week, & this one was by far our favorite. Staff was friendly & helpful, pool was clean, & room was amazing & spacious although dated. You could tell the property is well taken care of just by looking. 5 minute drive to Busch Gardens & 7-11 2 blocks away

Clean
The room was very outdated, however, it was very clean and comfortable. Not a bad option for a short stay.
The people that own and run it are very nice and considerate people. They are very caring and friendly. Would recommend them. The room was very nice and clean.
Couples get away. No frills motel but a good place to stay on a budget. Our go to place because it is clean, spacious, staff is very friendly and the pool is nice. Benches in front of your room if you want to sit outside and it is convenient and quiet. Park outside your room and walk right in.
We had a nice stay in a little 2 bedroom apt. Had upstairs with sitting room, dinning table, full size fridge and microwave. Only complaints were not enough trash cans and no towels or soap in kitchen. Clean place to stay. Close to Bush Gardens and food.
Our family of 3 stayed for 2 nights. Staff and owners were friendly and everything was very clean and well stocked. We made the most of the pool and enjoyed two nights of swimming. Pool was well maintained and lights worked for night swimming. AC was fantastic, tv worked great, and mini fridge was clean and worked well. Definitely recommend this place and will be coming back ourselves.

Disliked: Amenities
comfy and location was great. Really only downfall is lack of housekeeping visit during stay. Needed towels, TP and trash emptied but kept having to run to office to ask for things. Overall, stay was good.
Very tiny towels, not enough of that provided, ran out of both toilet paper and tissues. All of the above is easy to acquire, though. Staff was friendly and room was clean.
