Cons:

You charged me twice. I booked my reservation through booking.com for $366 and then I received another bill on my credit card for $399. I have turned this over to my credit card company.

Skvělý hotel hned u Crystal River
Pros:

Pohodlné postele, čisto, příjemný bazén. Super poloha, blízko ke kapustňákům, cca 3 minuty. Parkování na místě zdarma.

Cons:

Ráno jsme měli slot na kapustňáky a nestihli snídani. Bohužel nešlo udělat balíček, i když jsme to hlásili den dopředu.

Great clean hotel only 1.7 miles to see the manatees.
Pros:

This hotel is clean, super efficient with a great staff. Cody on the front desk was amazing. Gave us good recommendations and where to go and was super friendly. We went to Crystal River to go see the manatees. This is the closest hotel.
