DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Jacksonville Riverfront
I can't give 5 stars because it wasn't a perfect stay due to 2 issues (air and toilet). They fixed both issues quickly and efficiently. The location was fabulous for the game on Sunday. The beds were comfortable and breakfast ($20) was great. The staff went above and beyond and were so kind to us ...
