DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Jacksonville Riverfront
The location of this hotel was very convenient and the view of the river was amazing. However, the room we stayed in was very “tired” and needed some TLC.

Embassy Suites by Hilton Jacksonville Baymeadows
The gym lacked a versatile universal gym. I wasn't able to do my normal workout. Elliptical was fine.

San Marco Inn East
Clean but rating was definitely inaccurate. It was more like a 6.8. Room very beat up
