Gostei da localização e do tamanho do quarto. Estacionamento bom também. Hotel novo e bem conservado. Funcionários atenciosos e dispostos a ajudar.
Sofá cama muito desconfortável. Falta um lugar para secar as roupas. Academia deixa a desejar. Café da manhã com poucas opções, especialmente, de frutas. Cobraram uma taxa da Universidade USF, que não havia sido combinada, por estar dentro de um campus.

Location to Yuengling Center. Easy safe walk.
Long dreadful lines for check-in. If you wanted to purchase something in the gift shop (snacks etc.) pick um while you are in checkin line cause you have to pay for items at front desk. Even hours after I checked in, the line at the front desk was ridiculous that I still couldn’t buy any snacks.
4.1
Very close to the college and was there for graduation .. having a breakfast and also dining for dinner and the bartender was amazing
No lunch option and shuttles should go farther than they do and especially an airport shuttle would be great and it was freezing cold in lobby and rooms and could not control temp in room had to shut off the ac completely to get comfortable
4.1
Nice rooms, updated, clean.
Some breakfast items were cold (pancakes)
4.1
The staff was very nice, we did have to pay for parking and we were charged twice even though we only had 1 vehicle.
They probably need to get a new toaster because the fire alarm kept going off in the morning when people tried to use it and everyone had to evacuate the building.
4.1
Outstanding staff from reception to bar in terms of immediate service and hospitable attitude. Room accessibility & amenities; bathroom water temp & lighting, included breakfast variety. Of our group of about 30 people, all but 2 were pleased with this hotel.
Lack of room price availability/transparency; hotel source itself would not match Booking.com, Expedia, Priceline or similar service quotes; each service offered different rates; persons in same party paid from $400 to $175 per night for same type rooms and amenities. This situation may have depended on when reservations were made. Three elevators insufficient for hotel this size when it is nearly full - though in fairness had to wait only about 30% of time for another car and stay was during Spring Break.
4.1
The breakfast was very good and the,staff hard working and efficient. The hotel is conveniently located to Busch Gardens and the shuttle to the park eliminates the expense and hassle of parking. Matt, the driver, is excellent & works,with you to coordinate drop off & pick up. The pool area was nice and bigger than the pictures.
The suite rooms are big and good for families. The microwave & fridge are a bonus. I've stayed here before & will stay again.
The front desk staff was hit or miss, we had problems at check in. Our room was hot, musty & smelly. The AC hadn't been turned on.The associate was completely unsympathetic and flatly declared there was no other room. Fortunately the maintenance man was so efficient and got the unit working . The smell faded but never went away. Several front desk people were helpful with the,shuttle etc others were totally disinterested . One elevator never worked during our 3 day stay.

The room big and clean, breakfast was delicious
I didn’t like that we had to pay for parking

Staff and breakfast was amazing!
The phones didn’t work so we couldn’t use room service and when we called with our cell phones to the lobby it kept on disconnecting. Then the next day our ac and some power went out, we couldn’t call. We were checking out within the next few hours so I mentioned it when I checked out. Seemed like the front desk person was a little frustrated from other “complaints “.
4.1
The property was older but attractive with a little wear and tear but the suites were comfortable.
I didn’t like that the price was not the same as quoted on Bookings. They also charged $12 a night for parking in a suburban parking lot that they owned which wasn’t that nice. They also charged a $1 a night fee for the USF campus . Overall. the price was too expensive.

The location was great. It was near plenty of restaurants, gas stations and Walmart. I was very close to Bush Gardens, the interstate and the area was safe to take a walk.
There was a pile of dirty linen outside my door for 24hrs from time I checked in till the nxt day. The rm smelled like mold and breakfast was like being at motel6. If I was a smoker, I could get high for free by hanging in the parking lot or by the pool. The Marijuana smell was so strong, I got a headache just walking to my car. The lobby was dirty from kids playing until the nxt day. House keeping sucks!. I didn't want to stay in a hotel with dogs! I felt like I was at a dog park
4.1
Rooms was not clean. For a Hilton, I expected cleaner facilities.
4.1
I appreciated their happy hour, but that was the only positive aspect for me.
I wasn't too thrilled with the happy hour as it only allowed for two drinks, and the quality of the TVs in the room was subpar. Additionally, the rooms themselves seemed outdated and old. When I tried calling the hotel, no one picked up and the call would sometimes drop for hours. As for breakfast, it was quite disappointing and reminiscent of a subpar lunchroom from the 1980s.
4.1
was good. different variety
4.1
In the heart of USF, so close to many things. The beds were comfortable. Friendly and helpful staff. Great amenities. The building is a little old but still clean.
The pool and pool area were full of bugs, so my friends couldn't swim or really hang by the pool long. It's not a huge issue.
