I chose this property to take advantage of Early Park Admission offered. It was not worth it. We were on the first shuttle over to IOA at 7a/m for Hagrid’s to break down 10 minutes after the park opened. We stayed in line until 9:30 hoping it would reopen, until they finally announced the ride would be closed until further notice. So we walk over to HP & the Forbidden Journey to get in line there, when they also shut down with technical difficulties. It wasn’t until almost 11a/m that we were finally able to ride our first ride, the Velocicoaster. This wasn’t the hotel’s fault of course, but I could’ve stayed across the street at the Hyatt for a free breakfast. Everything was a la carte at Dockside’s market, spending almost $50 for a coffee, OJ, carton of yogurt, small fruit and a scone. I probably would’ve still rated this hotel 3 out of 5 stars except for the nightly noise. Do not plan on sleeping at this place until well after 2 a/m. It was horrendous.

Hotel needs more staff

Check in time took 1hr 37min. Hotel floors and halls should have been vacuumed daily. Shower water didn't get very hot. Beds were uncomfortable. Pool bar was understaffed, there was always a line and a 20-30 min wait. Overall, hotel seemed to be understaffed

We had a great time at the hotel. It’s so convenience to have transportation from and to the parks. The busses are constantly running so we never have to wait more than 5 minutes. The only thing is that it seems like the walls are very thin and you can hear all the noises from above and next rooms.

The property had a lot to offer. Biggest downfall was that the smoking section was right out the doors going to Tower 2. You were constantly walking thru smoke to get to the lobby and cafeteria. Some days the lobby smelt like a bar.
