“In my opinion, travelers seeking budget accommodations near Busch Gardens might find the location advantageous, but reports of cleanliness issues and disruptive noise could detract from the stay. The lack of certain amenities, like in-room phones, combined with concerns about safety and security, suggest this property may suit only those with very basic expectations. I would recommend weighing these factors carefully against the savings.”
