Run down motel with a holiday inn sign in front
Pros:

It’s close to other areas of interest and restaurants. Kind of off the beaten path but close enough to be relevant. Definitely not close to SeaWorld like they advertised

Cons:

Room was not cleaned when I arrived. Had a towel left in the bathroom from previous room guest with curly hair on it. Ac leaked all over the floor and didn’t have a sofa… when have you ever heard of a king room with a sofa? Drains in the restroom didn’t drain and filled the sinks and tubs until about 10 minutes later. Contacted the front desk and they did absolutely nothing but put some towels down and tell me to move rooms after we had already unpacked everything and were leaving for a family event and didn’t return till much later that evening…. So yall didn’t have a clean room and now I have to inconvenience my family in the middle of the night. Absolutely disgusting rooms, food was served cold which is a health code violation in itself.
