Sleep Inn & Suites near Sports World Blvd

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was good. Room was clean. PARKING IS CRAZY - very limited on top level where the office is. There is more parking on bottom level, BUT parking is very tight if you have an oversized truck. There are only 3 handicapped parking spots. Morning staff was more friendly, night staff was not rude, just less friendly. Overall a good stay and we'd likely stay there again. 4.5 stars"
