Business Trip in Orlando

The room is very nice and internet is great. They serve a large breakfast, too. But I am one of those people blessed (and cursed) with sensitivity. The walls between rooms are too thin and my room faced a busy highway with endless noise. In short, I slept very poorly.

Great place for a universal trip!

The hotel was clean, the beds super comfy. My son loves staying here for the breakfast, lots of variety (eggs,sausage,biscuit,gravy,pancakes,cereal,yogurt). Free parking, 30 minutes walk to Universal or they have a shuttle (we didn't use the shuttle so can't comment on that).

Rude staff pay extra to deal with nice people

The staff especially at night and early morning doesn’t greet you. They seem irritated we were visiting the property. We went down for breakfast the last morning of our visit and I admit we were too early for breakfast. However a person from my party went into the breakfast area. They didn’t see any food out but the staff saw them enter and was agitated. Instead of the staff being courteous they scolded my party for being in the room and it wasn’t open yet. Noted we will not visit Hilton Inn Express ever again.

A bad night’s stay

My room was noisy. I could hear full conversations from the room next door. The rooms and lobby need a full facelift. The blinds in my room had holes and were badly stained. All the room doors need new closers. They slam shut. I got less than 6 hours sleep due to the noise.
