We stay for 2 days every 2 weeks. My Mom is having treatment at Moffitt. The shuttle takes her back and forth a few times a day (while I work remote). They are always very accommodating-and the Hotel is only a short drive to the cancer center-so easy for me to pick her up at the end of the day.

Super noise, horrible shower water pressure, and pillows- worst quality possible. Staff was nice, but nothing compensates a bad night of sleep, and a bad experience showering when in a hotel!
