Great value!

This hotel is a great deal! It's close to the Disney parks and any amenity you could ever need. The manager and staff are very friendly. The rooms are a bit dated but clean and comfortable. We weren't there much anyway!

You’re coming here to go to Disney, and that’s exactly what you get. The only thing I don’t like is the bathroom door is a sliding door but the rest is perfect. The beds are also better than the Disney resorts I’ve stayed at

cockroaches! BEWARE! I honestly don’t know how this hotel has an 8.2 out of 10! had an 8 night stay booked, upon entering the hotel I knew I went too cheap. Once we got to the room it was small but we didn’t mind I went looking around and right away could see that NO money is spent on the upkeep of the hotel. Yes they updated the outside but Inside was down right unacceptable.The inside of the shower facet and grab bar were extremely corroded, the bed sheets were so old they had that roughness with the little balls that come from being old and used and washed thousands of times, the beds were otherwise clean. All the furniture is extremely scuffed, and carpets are dirty etc..COCKROACHES EXPLAINED! On the 6th night I got up to go to the bathroom and saw something small run across the floor and stopped by the bottom of the outside of the shower, I immediately killed it and saw it was a small roach. I didn’t see anymore and thought ohh god now we have roaches and didn’t sleep the rest of the night. The next morning we had to leave to go to Disney, when we got back to the room at 9pm when we walked into our room we saw a big one above our bed. I screamed and said I’m leaving now! My husband killed it with his shoe.We pack in a matter of mins and checked out ASAP! I told the front desk Gloria, she immediately said ohh o I’m so sorry I will refund you 3 nights, she asked for my card and after looking into my account said you booked non refundable and we can’t issue any refund.

Ideal location

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location was ideal, especially for Disney-goers. The customer service was top-notch - the staff were friendly and went above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable. While the hotel may be a bit dated, it didn't detract from my overall experience. I found my stay to be great value and would definitely recommend it to others.

If i could share pictures, i would. There were blood stained blankets, some other stains on both comforters, and hairs with follicles on every single sheet. One of the beds had pills all over the sheet too. I stayed somewhere else. It felt gross, and didnt look like the pictures.

The closeness to Disney World was convenient and because it was west of there, the traffic coming back was greatly reduced.

This is a really good off property discount hotel. Rooms are older but clean and comfortable. Staff is pleasant. Would stay again if I need a last minute place to crash. Heads up, breakfast is no longer offered despite Orbitz indicating such. If you park in the back at night, there’s no fence between the hotel and the forest so keep your phone flashlight as you might get stalked by a raccoon or two.

Run down, but comfortable and affordable

The good: the bed was clean and comfortable, the A/C worked, the front desk staff were friendly and helpful. Located next to a 24/7 McDonald’s which made breakfast easy and convenient. Was an affordable and safe hotel. The bad: basically everything else. It’s a run down, poorly designed crammed room, in a hotel that’s not really near Disney “main gate” despite the misleading name - it’s a 15-min uber ride to Disney, so still relatively close. They didn’t clean the rooms for a three night stay, we had no supplied or towels replenished, nothing cleaned. They don’t have Tea onsite, just coffee for the room coffee maker, and we ran out. Coulda probably asked front desk for more but with a busy Disney schedule there’s little time for trying to ask the hotel staff for special treatment.
