It was a comfortable stay at this property. The pool was nice, Room was clean and comfortable. The AC worked great. Restaurant/bar was being built and would be a nice addition. There are some minor things on the property that can be improved like general repairs but it seems like they are working on it. Overall, good value and comfortable stay.

We spent 3 weeks here during cancer treatments at Moffitt Cancer Center ( 4 min away) , and returned again yesterday .. the staff is amazing (especially Cameron, Irina, Maria). Friendly, helpful always! Breakfast was good and doesn’t shut down immediately based on the clock., if people are eating there is food there! Rooms are clean , and the center area with the pool, giant chess set,corn hole games and a variety of seating choices makes for great family fun. It’s gives you that old time Florida family vacation feeling .. beats the high rise hotels hands down.. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED thank you all , see you again I’m sure!

The Oasis was a great place! We especially liked the pool/game/sitting area! It was perfect for hanging out and chatting. Overall, the facility was very clean. The staff was very kind, especially Cameron at the front desk. He suggested the Yeungling Draught Haus and we won at trivia! The proximity to Busch Gardens and Adventure Island was also a huge plus! We would absolutely stay here again!

The place was noisy. There were people yelling and slamming doors well after midnight. The towels and washcloths were stained and smelled bad. The sheets had the same odor. The fitted sheet didn’t fit the bed and kept slipping off the corners.The mini fridge was off, I couldn’t figure out how to turn it on to cool it and it smelled terrible. I could’ve called for help, but we didn’t really need it so I left it alone. The breakfast was all ready-made microwave type foods and wasn’t very good. The pool seemed really nice but we weren’t there long enough to use it. Staff was friendly. I would probably spend a little more and stay elsewhere next time.
