We had a fantastic stay! The hotel provides a great breakfast each morning, free parking, and nice pools for relaxing. The location is unbeatable — it’s within walking distance to all the main attractions, literally just a few steps from Anakeesta and Ripley’s Aquarium. The bus stop is also right in front of the hotel, which made getting around super convenient. Highly recommend for anyone visiting the area!
