We stay here every time we drive to FL from Chicago. Always consistent -nice staff and great breakfast with some healthy options. There are at least 4 restaurants that are under a 7 minute walk and lots more to drive to. There’s a pool, workout room, whirlpool and they are pet friendly!! Great place!

The facility was well appointed and in excellent shape. The only drawback was the street construction in front of the motel. It was a mess.
