We called last minute over the holidays for a suite that accepts pets, and they gave us a lovely room (suites are only on upper floors, and only for non-pet people:-), and the staff bent over backwards to make our two-night stay wonderful. The decor is modern and fresh, the rooms quiet and comfy, the breakfast yummy (fresh waffles every morning, tons of low-cal options, GREAT coffee!), and everyone who works there is friendly, upbeat and accommodating. It would have been nice to have a bit more room for two adults, two kids and a Pomeranian, but being on the ground floor did make it much easier to take the dog out for walks. The location right next to a huge movie theatre is ideal for kids, though we adults would have liked to be closer to town. All in all, this is a hotel we'd stay in again in a heartbeat. Plus, if you want to explore the beaches of Melbourne, the Kennedy Space Center or adorable historic downtown Melbourne, all of the above are nearby and easy to get to. The staff also led us to a fun Irish pub downtown, as we hate chain restaurants and wanted an authentic experience. We got it in spades, and the hotel folks even gave us a coupon for 10 percent off our lunch. They doted on the kids, the dog and were so pleasant in every interaction. The best road find in a good long while!
