I always caveat my reviews by reminding people to make their choices based on their needs and desires for accommodations and recreation. Here are the pros and cons on this hotel relevant for our family. We stayed here the day after a Disney cruise.
PROS: *A 5 minute drive or free shuttle ride to the airport: Very convenient.
*Got Hilton Honors points we’re accumulating to use in the near future.
*Extremely friendly staff, at least when we arrived. They said they were celebrating women and girls and gave me a free voucher for a soda and allowed me to choose a $1-$2 gift out of a basket for my daughter. Small cost for them but a neat welcome.
*Restaurants nearby you can walk to. Or a short drive away. I bet if you asked, their free shuttle would take you or pick you up from one of the restaurants a few blocks away. We ordered pizza from a local place that was listed in the Hampton Inn room directory. It was solid.
*Free warm breakfast.
CONS: *Pool is outside and not heated, but it’s Florida, you can’t complain too much.
OVERALL, My advice is, if you aren’t picky about hotel brands, you could stay somewhere a little cheaper without a breakfast, but it really is a nice feature, as is the free airport shuttle.
