We loved working at the Dana!! Here’s what someone else thought!!

“Again came here for comic con.  Got the same type of hotel room.  We really love this hotel.  It’s next to the boat docks; gave us a chance to walk around in the morning.  The grounds are beautiful, lifting our spirits just looking at it.  I had called earlier to let them know we’ll be doing a late check-in; we came in after our first day at the con, no problem.  

Our room was just like the one we got last year, the beds comfortable, there was a mini-fridge and a microwave.  The coffee maker is the new keurig type; so no way to get a carafe of hot water (we brought our zojirushi).  The desk lamp had 2 plugs on the base, which was handy for us to charge our phones.  The shower was fine, nice and hot water, everything was clean and double sinks made everything easier in the morning.  I brought along an extension cord, which came in handy for my cpap (you do need an extension cord, there was no way it could reach from the desk lamp wall to the nightstand).  

No complaints at all, the cups were replaced this time around w/o us asking for it.  

After the first day of not getting any food at Cafe 222, we decided to eat at the Firefly restaurant for breakfast.  That was the BEST decision ever!  

The restaurant opens at 7:30, and it was a buffet spread ($25 per person, but since we were staying at the hotel, it was half off with the hotel coupon).  Not only was there bacon, sausages, and an omelet station, the buffet also had french toast, pancakes, waffles, oatmeal, salad fixings, hard boiled eggs, artichokes salad, broccoli slaw, yellowtail skewers, short ribs, roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, breakfast potatoes, fresh fruit, a ton of desserts (all have wheat), coffee, tea, juices, milk, almond milk, soy milk.  

I have to say that’s the best breakfast we had.  We ate here everyday for breakfast for the remainder of the con. The short ribs were so amazingly soft and melty goodness, mashed potatoes were smooth and hot, great, roasted vegetables brought out all their flavors, the bacon delicious, the salad fresh & crispy, breakfast potatoes each piece was cooked crispy on the outside, the sausages plump and tasty, the yellowtail was not dry even though it’s on a skewer, fresh fruit (cantaloupe, honeydew, pineapple) that actually was ripe and juicy, and the different choices of milk.  I was very impressed, and was finally able to eat a normal breakfast (in our family, breakfast is a meal like any other meal, we only eat eggs and sausages occasionally).  

Honeybuns ate just as well. He loved the food. The servers were very attentive, and kept coming around with water and coffee.  We were very happy with our food.

On our last evening, we were walking around the boat walk, and caught the fireworks from seaworld.  That was a bonus !!!”
