"Fantastic hotel for family"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 6, 2012
All perfect! Huge suites, great staff, outstanding pool, close to everything.
"Nice place, good deal for the money"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 6, 2012
We stayed here for the good rates, and were within a 5 minute walk to Doubletree and the other premier hotels and also the awesome Ale House (try the chicken twisters - yummi). The staff at the front desk were awesome, though the sales desk BS'd us by telling us that their tickets were the same cost as at the gate of Universal. Universal gate was cheaper. They also pushed for us to get a 2 day pass saying it takes 28 hours to get thru the two parks. Well we bought the 1 day pass and we were on and off ALL the rides in both parks by 3PM and were heading back to Island of adventure to ride some again. But if we bought the two day pass we would've been bored out of our mind. Granted we did go to Universal on a Tuesday and there were few people there. Also the sales desk told us it was a 15 minute walk. Me and my friends are in marathon shape, it still took us 30 minutes to get there. Lastly they told us that since we are staying in a hotel close to Universal we'd get in at 8, another lie, we arrived at 8:15 and we weren't allowed in until 9, only guests staying in Universal itself at the expensive premier hotels were allowed early entry. So in summation; I would recommend La Quinta but don't go buy your tickets from the liars at the sales desk for any parks. PS - our room smelled like someone smoked in it, it was mild so we didn't complain and the windows opened, that was nice.
"nice comfotable room with updated decor"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 5, 2012
I enjoyed my stay but did not get to eat breakfast because they ran out of a lot of items an hour before they stopped serving it.
"Close to Universal/priced OK"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 5, 2012
This Days Inn is very old and could use a major overhaul. We had booked 2 nights and the first room was uncomfortable and dirty. Plus bugs. In the morning we requested another room and were immediately upgraded to a larger, cleaner, more comfortable room. Front desk was eager to help and maintenance staff also helped to fix a missing chair leg in the new room. Overall we probably would not recommend this Days Inn except for its location and price (be aware of the 'resort' fee added at check-in per day). This is no resort.

see all hotels in Lake Buena Vista"out dated"
Everything was out dated ... it was nice having a balcony and room was big ...no fridge no microwave and small old tv
"not too bad for the price"
Hotel location is nice! The room was so cold - the thermostat just blew cold, no matter what we did to it, and no way to turn it off, shower curtain too short for the tub, so water just spills out on floor. Other than that, hotel is nice, pool was heated and clean.
"Weddings"
We had a great stay - except that we were on the 18th floor, which is where their catering takes place. On Friday and Saturday nights the halls were blocked with catering trays and the music was a bit loud...
"Good location right price"
Not the fanciest hotel. A little dates but very nice. I would stay here again
"Close to Downtown Disney"
For a last minute booking, I was very satisfied. Decent hotel, and very close to our target Disney areas.
"Great location, nice room, if a little dated"
Great location near Downtown Disney. Room is comfortable, though it is a little bit dated.

I was unable to adjust the temperature in the room. The tub didn't drain properly and I had water pass my ankles. Additionally, the water constantly changed from hot to cold and back again as I showered.
"close to everything we wanted to do"
First time at the best western in orlando very satisfied will stay there again would not hesitate to recomend the hotel to my friends or anyone for that matter
Good location... Hotel needs remodeling, kind of old...
"close to Disney and Downtown Disney"
This hotel was awesome. We had a great room and the service was good. The hotel was beautiful and super clean. The location was awesome close to Downtown Disney and Disney World. Overall a great hotel.
"The best kept secret - this jewel at a magic price"
This guest did not leave a comment.
The stay was OK but compaired to other hotels of similar price and location I thought it to be a little over priced. When we checked in we were charged a Resort Fee which included parking and internet fee some $11.00 which was OK. But at check out the next morning, We were charged the same fee again. The Manager on duty said they had no record of us […] paying it. Read more
"Communication"
The hotel swears they collect the fees for resort etc... meanwhile hotels.com collected that fee. Turns out after speaking to 3 separate Best Western employees they were wrong!! The fees were not charged by the hotel and reversed from my bill.

"Amazing!"
Views were gorgeous from our 17th floor room w accessible balcony! We ate dinner at the table and chairs provided on the balcony, EVERYTHING is within a block away. Very comfortable beds and ample amount of pillows! Only cons were, tv had poor reception and very few channels, shower space was tight and it took an hour and a half to fulfill our request […] for extra towels. Other than that.... perfect for such a great price! Read more
"Reasonable Price - Short Stay"
No issues. Decent rooms, nothing spectacular, but clean.
"Best western lake buena vista resort"
Outdated hotel. It's a time capsule : back to the 70's And where is the resort ?

I chose this hotel instead of a Disney Value because I thought it would be less expensive. By the time I paid taxes and the resort fee (a fee for "amenities"), I could have stayed at the Value resort and taken advantage of the reliable bus service. I didn't like having to pay a resort fee because the hotel advertises "free internet", but I was told […] that was part of the "amenities". The parking is inconvenient as well. Not the worst, definately not worth the money spent to stay there. Read more

"Fridge fee? Variable shower temps!!"
When looking for a hotel in Orlando, it may seems perfect... good location... known flagship and great price! There, they charge you $10 per hotel amenities which they could not explain. Plus, when I opened the fridge cabinet: NO FRIDGE! I phoned the frontdesk and they confirmed that nothing was wrong... to have the fridge in room you need to pay […] an extra fee! Shower? Impossible to have the temperature stabilized... cold, hot, cold, hot! The shoer took more 15 mins than usually! This hotel? Nevermore!!! Read more

"Best Western Hotel in Lake Buena Vista Florida"
We stayed at a hotel in downtown Disney. They supply free shuttle service to all the Disney parks which is very convenient. Hotel was within walking distance of Downtown Disney. Hotel room was a good sized room with a couch and chair. Restaurant inside hotel was good, we ate there one night. Nice pool area.
"too cold in room"
Hotel was nice. Clean room and lobby area. Restaurant staff very friendly. The daytime Doorman spends too much time on his cel phone. My biggest problem with this place was the thermostat in the room. A message printed on the wall said "unit will run continuously". It was impossible to turn the AC off. And the vents were blowing directly on the bed. […] Perhaps I should have called for help, but this sort of thing should be user friendly. Consequently, I woke up with a soar throat. Read more

"Good for the money"
The hotel room was nice, and very comphy. Bathroom fixtures needed some work. Shower nozzle was broken and the air conditioner was broken. Room service was so-so... the hotel was walking distance from downtown disney. Overall it was ok!
"BW Hotel near Downtown Disney"
The beds were very comfortable. Good overall for a moderate price. Lots of buses to Disney Parks.
Didn't stay long enough to form much of an opinion or assessment.
"NOT RECOMMENDED"
the bathroom was very dirty. the door was broken the linens not clean at all. I will not recommed this hotel to others
"Old Hotel no upgrades"
Forget about this hotel, the only pro is the location, towels and sheets has over 10 years of wash after wash... bath wasn't really clean... pillows were like bricks... without refrigerator and much less microwave.. (unless you pay $ 30 plus daily).. you are paying just location not comfort...
I was unhappy about being charged a so called guest fee of 11.50 when I checked out. I thought the room fee was also the guest fee. This extra fee should be well documented when you book the room at this hotel.
"Nice hotel in great location"
We just reurned from Florida and stayed at this hotel for 3 nights. Loved the location, and for the price we couldn't have asked for a better place! This hotel has free shuttles that will take you to the parks. This is a great benefit, especially if you plan on park hopping, which we did! The hotel is also walking distance from Crossroads Mall which […] has a lot of restaurants. We went to tgi fridays, perkins and taco bell for a late night snack . TGI Fridays has really great drink and appetizer specials every night after 9 so we highly suggest that place rather than Downtown Disney which can get expensive. We received a Disney View Room free because the first room they put us in didnt have a balcony or safe. They moved us no problem. Could see the Epcot fireworks at 9pm every night. There is some sort of construction going on in some rooms so you may want to ask to not be near that if you plan on sleeping in. Its loud. Managers would have moved us no problem but we were checking out the next day early. They gave us free breakfast vouchers which we didn't end up using. Beds were very comfy. Very nice, clean place overall. Would return. We booked on bookit.com and it was a lot less than the beat western website. Would highly recommend! Read more
"AVOID this hotel!"
There are much better options in the Orlando area. Hotel is dated and not very clean. Staff were not helpful, no one to help with bags and front desk personnel rude. Location is close to Disney parks and Downtown Disney area but not walking distance. Parking was OK. Overall I will not stay here again and would recommend avoiding.
"Great value, room was great!"
Check in was good, the reservation was made online about a 1/2 hour before my arrival. Room was clean, comfortable and more than I expected for the cost.
"close to everything"
Very close to Disney and plenty of good reasonably priced restaurants. Room clean overall but in need of some maintenance to baseboards and bathroom fixtures. Shower mixer valve hard to regulate. When compared to others in the same area, very reasonably priced. If you're a coffee lover, get it somewhere else. Their coffee is $2.50 a cup and tastes like […] dishwater. Read more
"Close to every thing, but NEEDS UPDATING"
It is close to everything we wanted, but the hotel is in serious need of updating/repair. We had no AC all night, the door to the balcony would not close (4 inch gap), my kids are older, but for young ones, I would have been nervous. Additionally, the door to the hallway could not be deadbolted (the bolt would not throw). Needless to say, we cut our […] 2 nights down the to the one we stayed and simply moved on. Read more
"Close to Disney attractions and to Downtown Disney"
This hotel is close enough to walk to downtown Disney, and a short drive to most Disney parks. Just a walk away is Mcdonald and other restaurant chains.

"Not good for the money"
Honestly we have stayed at Best Westerns before and though to give them another chance due to the location of the hotel. Not worth it at all for the ammount paid. The room was awful, the a/c was not working and when we called to get it fixed we got attitude from the night concierge. The location is amazing but the room and hotel condition are not worth […] what you end up paying, ohh and the parking situation is horrible as well. We do not recommend this hotel at all. Read more
"Don't look for friendly staff here!"
We were told our room wasn't ready at 3:30 when we arrived. We were lied too when we were told check in was at 4:00. The sign at the desk clearly stated that check in was at 3:00. When it was callled to their attention, suddenly our room was available. Not the kind of service we were expecting.
"could use a facelift"
The rooms could have been a lot more updated...the bathroom was pretty beat up. We stayed there because of location and walking to Downtown Disney was great. Would have liked coffee in the lobby and I had no choice of view from my room.
