    Had a fairly nice stay on a business trip, no reason to complain. Everything was good from the staff to the room, exceptionally comfortable bed and brand-new room. Really enjoyed the location in the neighborhood of 40 mile a hour in the parking lot. Just off restaurants and shopping, Florida, and race track.
