Crowne Plaza Hotel Jacksonville Airport/I-95N by IHG
Not the best experience especially having a 14 month old there. Not a kid friendly space.

Hyatt Place Jacksonville Airport
As soon as I walked in the room I spot a roach on the bathroom sink. I smashed it and took it to show the front desk staff, which surprisingly didn’t do anything about it aside from saying “I am sorry” and asking me what was my room number. This is worse than having a roach in a $200 hotel room.
