My wife and I stayed here for two nights, and it was an awesome experience! Right from the start, the front desk service was amazing, and I have to give a special shoutout to Keke—she was fantastic. This is probably the best bang-for-your-buck hotel near Busch Gardens. The free shuttle service is a huge plus—just call them, and they’ll pick you up from the park and bring you back to the hotel. Super convenient and a great way to avoid parking fees at Busch Gardens. Overall, we had an excellent stay, and I highly recommend this place!
