Hotel is relatively new. Clean. Good value but
The hotel is almost walking distance to SW and Aquatica. I tried walking. Taking the I-Trolley. Planning my day to match the free shuttle. Sucking it up and paying for parking made the most sense. Pay once and you can go back the same day.
The walk to Aquatica is about 3/4 mile (remember the entrance to Aquatica isn't on I Drive, that's the entrance to the parking lot). No sidewalk. Walk isn't the end of the world unless it turns out to be a very hot afternoon or you want to leave during an afternoon thunderstorm.
