Bed was good and the staff was nice. Room was very dark, only one floor lamp for light. The room also had a lot of empty space. Breakfast was a cluster-f to say the least.

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was good. Only negativrs were that the elevator was not working and taking luggage upand down three flights of stairs was cumbrrsome. Also, the front desk staff seemed to have little knowledge of what was around the hotel. For your information: CiCi's pizza was on the same block and a quick walk from hotel and you can see the high Magic Kingdom fireworks from the third floor in certain places. Not a lot but it may be fun for children to search for.
These two ducks were waiting outside the lobby every morning at breakfast.

Disappointing stay top to bottom! Hotel room very dilapidated with the following: limited outlets or non functioning for electricity housekeeping had to be reminded multiple times each time we’d like our room cleaned but never even changed the bed linens or towels (had to stop the laundry room to ask for towels and no Kleenex ever to replenished only the front desk staff spoke broken English Got to listen to 2 helicopters roar with take off/land on property from morning till 11pm, the complimentary breakfast was actually pretty good but tended to be empty hot food options and baked goods as only one staff was working to replenish items but by 9am most everything was gone and out of stock. No fitness center onsite unlike most Wyndham based hotels. Disrespectful guests vey loud and revving their cars in the parking lot. A hotel for the ghetto and will never be returning back to this hotel again! Avoid this place like the plague.

The room wasn’t that clean, showed on website a beautiful pool, yet upon arrival the pool was functioning & closed. I have nerve damage (neuropathy) in my legs & was told elevator was in working order due to us being on 3rd floor, but upon arrival that was false & I had to walk up three flights of cement steps. This is a hotel that’s very very misleading & nobody working could hardly speak English or understand, it’s Howard Johnson on website, yet once you enter building, it clearly says Developer Inn. Please be very very careful when considering booking this hotel.

Wonderful. The rooms are spacious and extremely clean. The bed is spectacular—I really want to highlight this because it’s more comfortable than the one I have at home. They came every day to change the bed linens. The location is perfect: 10 minutes from Disney Springs and 3 minutes from Walmart. Very quiet place. I highly recommend this place. And for sure, if I come back I will book this hotel again,

Overall good for the cost. Only having ten channels with nothing for kids and no option for streaming is kind of disappointing. Having to request a do not disturb door hanger from the front desk everyday was a new experience. Breakfast was simple but it worked. It’s definitely a lot older and not as clean as the pictures make it seem. Elevator out of order, the night staff said that’s just how things go there.
