    Although I asked for a room on the top floor, far from the elevator and laundry chute I was given the room closest to the elevator. I understand that my request might not be able to be honored. But I find it hard to believe that putting me on a lower floor in the very closest room to the elevator was necessary. I also spent $21 to get a Lyft to a park based on an employee's recommendation. I was looking for a place I could walk. But after the Lyft driver saw where we were he wouldn't leave me there alone. Plus there was no place to walk. No trails, no sidewalk, nothing but a picnic table, a small fishing pier and restrooms. So I paid the Lyft driver to take me somewhere else where I could walk. But by far the worst part of this stay was the non-stop stomping from the person in the room above me. After a couple of hours of this I called the front desk and was told nothing could be done by them unless it was 11:00 p.m. or later. The person above me finally stopped stomping at 10:50 p.m. Then he or she started up again in the morning before daylight. It was a miserable stay.

    Jaime working nights at the front desk went above and beyond to try to help with some last minute forgotten items.

    We drove 24hrs and were on the way to port Canaveral for a cruise, and needed to stop for the night so we chose this Holiday Inn, and it couldn’t have been a better choice. Everything was perfect, staff were friendly and super professional. It was right in the interstate on our route to Port Canaveral. 5 stars from all of us 5 who stayed!
