Pros:

I usually don’t write negative reviews, but I feel it’s important to share my experience.
The room I was given was extremely noisy — I could hear loud sounds from outside traffic, felt like as if I am sleeping in the middle of the road
I mentioned the issue to the front desk, they assigned a different room next to the pool. This is noisy too with the people by the pool
For a hotel in this price range, I expected at least some peace and quiet.
Another issue is the AC/thermostat in the room was either cooling or shuts off, making the room extremely uncomfortable

Pros:

It met the need as i was close to FSU, but on the 2nd day, my room smelled so much of weed that i had to spray air freshener in the ac vent and air out my clothes that had been in the room all day. It was overwhelming.

Pros:

The rooms are spacious and well maintained. The breakfast is decent though they can't seem to keep the coffee available in the morning. Both mornings I had to get the decaf initially.
