I had a nice stay. I thought the bed was comfortable and the location worked for me. The cons were with it being right on 192, the traffic noise is prominent. The hotel could use some repair and renovation in places, but it worked for our needs.I didnt feel the resort fee was fitting to what was offered.

We’ve stayed here many times over the years and I’ve always found it to be a great value. This time, though, I was disappointed to see they closed the on-site Mexican restaurant. Also, the pool and hot tub were closed one of the nights without warning. The “resort fees” are another source of disappointment. I’ll probably stay here again because my kid loves the lazy river and it’s so close to Disney but it doesn’t have the same shine for me that it used to.

We have stayed here before and we like it but this time we booked 2 rooms and this past week phones x2 and were assured we had adjoining queen bed rooms and when we go here we were told they are adjoining but next to each other but they are on opposite sides of the elevator and not next to each other. We are traveling with children and this messed up the arrangements. We will not stay here again as we need to know that when we are told k thing that it is correct. When traveling and booking with kids the Marcos bc oral!! I am really disappointed.
