Find 2-Star Hotels in Brevard County

My wife and I were wrapping up a trip to Florida before headed home and we had heard that they had rescheduled a SpaceX Dragon launch with an astronaut from our hometown the last day we were going to be there. We looked at several different hotels and on a whim, decided to try Travel Inn Titusville. Honestly, first impression we thought it to be a bit sketch. You had to ring a doorbell to get someone to come from the house behind the hotel to check you in. The office reminded me of a taxi cab office with a little desk and an older computer. The guy checking us in was extremely helpful and told us the best place to watch the launch was up the road about two miles at the Rotary Club Riverfront Park. And he was definitely right!! We got the key and were directed to a small building caddy corner to the office where our room was. Just by the outside, it reminded me of the type of hotel I would stay at when I was a kid traveling with my parents. Very retro!! We opened up the door to our room and were pleasantly surprised. The room had a very nice comfortable look. The bed was interesting...a bit like a bean bag LOL. The bathroom and shower were nice sized and easily maneuverable. Overall, we would definitely come back!

I stayed here for one night, September 28, Room 216. When I entered the room, the AC was set to 71. I raised the temperature a bit. I noticed everything felt cold (expected) and damp, including the floor. I figured it was due to the AC. The next morning, the floor was moist enough to get my socks wet. The thermostat showed 74 degrees. Another problem was that the bathroom door couldn't close. I don't think the problems are related. I notified the front desk when I checked out. The room and breakfast area were quite clean and the TV was huge.

Do Not stay here if you are a travel team or traveling with a group of kids!!!  **We are not the 1st to have had this experience! Unfortunately,  we had booked before we saw the negative review by another team.   We visited this hotel this summer traveling with our baseball team. Our team has no idea why Brenda  offered this hotel for our stay, when clearly it was not a kid friendly hotel. We booked about 12 rooms months ahead of time, and clearly stated it was a family baseball travel team that would be staying here. We have experienced traveling together as a team for  years now and had never had such poor treatment before. Rules or waivers should have been given to one adult per guest room prior to our booking , not to just one parent to sign  on behalf of the entire team, and after the fact that we had checked in and had begun to experience negative actions by the hotel. In the past , if we received such a waiver, it was prior to a booking and especially before check in. Not while you are already a guest and can not cancel your stay without penalty.   Our bad experience had to do mainly with how poorly the staff resolved our issues, making us feel unwelcomed at this hotel. We had no where to congregate and enjoy the evening with friends. Past 10pm, we could not be in the lobby nor in the dining/conference area, we could not be outside in the pool area whether you were in or out of the pool. We are families traveling with our children for vacation and baseball tournaments. After a day at the park , we wanted to enjoy time together,  dinner , and conversations together, but we could not do this here.   One factor when traveling as a team , we must accommodate budgets, which is a reason why we stayed here. To keep costs down, our team  likes to gather and bring food to eat together or celebrate, and at this hotel we were either rushed out of the common area or could not stay past 10pm. That's not so easy when you have teenage boys excited about winning games, celebrating birthdays and vacationing together.   We parents really tried to make it work for our boys, but this hotel is not where you want to bring your team . We spent our nights in the parking lot gathering, while our kids played organized games outside. The police were called on us more than once either by hotel staff  or guests, but the police patrolled and never came to break our gathering outside nor did they find the boys to be doing anything wrong. They allowed us to continue congregating outside, as this hotel did not allow us inside other than in our rooms. How demeaning to all of us who are guests of this hotel, to resort to gathering in a parking lot.   Many parents like myself were upset and we tried speaking to Brenda who booked this stay for us, but she was only to be found a day or 2 before we left from our week stay, and was there at the times we were not , due to our boys' games. Brenda had an unpleasant call with our team mom, blaming us as a whole for not abiding

Overall this is a great place to stay. We did the stay and park for a cruise we were taking with the terminal across the street. The room was great! Very clean, smelled good, beds were comfortable, bathroom and shower is large. Hallways, food area all great and clean. Only con I have is the staff. One lady in particular. Looks older, glasses, short yellow blonde hair. Rude is an understatement. While in line to check in she was on the phone with a customer and actually said, ”let me just stop you there, I don't need to hear anymore, you've called the wrong place, you need to call .....” then said, ”I already told you that you've not called the right place, I don't need to hear what you are saying”. Then after the phone call she looked at me and said, ”what do you need”. I said, ”well I'd like to check in”. She was not friendly or welcoming at all. I was highly disappointed. Her attitude actually had me commenting to my spouse that maybe I chose the wrong place to stay! Later in the day I came down to purchase something out of the snack/drink area and ask the young man at the desk if I could pay in cash or did I need my card and she interrupted her coworker and said, ”he doesn't take cash but I will so just bring it here”. I remained friendly and thanked her. We had stayed in another area the night before at a Holiday Inn Express and the difference between the two was the Hostess/front desk. This lady should not be behind the counter. She is rude and not friendly at all!

The good: The internet was surprisingly fast (25-30 mbps downloand although the upload speed was not nearly as fast). The room was clean and quiet and the stuff that was supposed to work worked correctly. The vending machine prices were reasonable Needs improvement: The mattresses are to stiff and springy but not to a degree that would prevent one from sleeping. I did not see any bugs in the room or any weird people although someone was in the office complaining about loud music late at night. I suspect ground floor rooms away from the pool area(where I stayed) would be quieter. I would suggest talking to the front desk as they can move you if needed. I did not sample the breakfast but it looked reasonably decent for continental.
