The front desk & housekeeping were very nice! It was unfortunate that our room was not cleaned on 3 different occasions. It was the timing of our being gone and returning before it was done. There were a few occasions where the shuttle was not available. It was not reliable.

I booked this hotel due to the positive reviews and also the complimentary airport shuttle AND area shuttle to Universal. We had 3 different shuttle drivers and all 3 were very kind. We arrived early (before 4pm check in time), so we went to eat and did some shopping. Once we went back to the hotel, our room still was not ready but the male receptionist asked if we'd like another room that was ready. He even let us view it to make our decision which was fantastic. Everything we needed was walking distance and we would stay here again :)

Clean room and property in a nice location. We like to stay at places that aren't big name brand hotels/motels and Safari was perfect for our 2 day trip to Universal. Free airport and park shuttle service was a nice perk too. Staff was very friendly

The heated pool was just the right temperature for a refreshing swim in the evening. Old school hotel with lots of memorabilia and well maintained. The room was clean and comfortable. Nothing over the top just quiet comfort.

Home away from home 🏡

I know the Safari Inn actually back in 1994. Location is perfect for me. Safety and access to any hospital is 3 minutes away. Poolside and dining are available 24/7. Quietest place to rest and bring family. Staff is helpful. Parking available in front of my room. Always my go to place without waiting or crowds. I will be back again Thank you Safari Inn
