Great Hotel

For the pricewe got, can' be beat! Beatiful lobby, really nice rooms, clean, friendly staff. Just don't let them try and sell you a time share at their Disney desk - unless you're willing to sacrafice 1/2 a day for a discount. Bus picks you up right out front for Disney. Room was loud due to close proximity of highway - just bring ear plugs if that bothers you. We will definitely return - Very happy with it!

Great Hotel

Three of us stayed for one night at the hotel, after a long day at Disney; the room was nice and for the most part clean (shower door needs some extra cleaning, some mildew at the bottom – disgusting). For the price we paid it was a great deal. If I would pay the full price, I would expect a little more out from it.

Good hotel, but too over priced.... the little charges add up..

This hotel was conveniently located in downtown Disney, but the hotel was no better designed than a holiday inn. the rooms were nice but basic. you pay for parking... you pay for internet.... you pay for every service available. the lobby is very upscale, but the rooms are very average

Great location, but nothing special

The hotel was very clean, but the bathroom had mold issues. Also, the "concierge" tried to make a hard sell on us after checking in, to go to a breakfast buffet and listen to a sales pitch on timeshares and we would earn $75 for going. After being inundated with Mickey Mouse all day, the last thing we wanted was a sales pitch when all we wanted to do was relax and go to bed. For the price, I'd rather stay in a brand name hotel.

Cleanliness Issues

Overall, the hotel was a little worse that we expected. Our bathroom showed signs of having not been thoroughly cleaned, and the trash by the vending/ice machine was not emptied during the entire 3 days of our stay. Meals are currently being served in a makeshift dining room with extremely small tables while the main dining room is being remodeled. We would recommend only if you get an outstanding rate and don't mind some less-than-outstanding aspects like those listed above.

Somewhat surprised

Was disappointed that when we set up reservations that the person taking the reservation did not tell us that there was a parking fee that we had never paid before and that the little cafe was under construction. Also, the maid did not leave clean towels even though we left them on the floor nor did she leave new creamers for the coffee and there was only one coffee cup.

Lousy amenities, overcharges for everything

They charge for Wifi, $9.95 a day. They charge for parking, $8.00. They claim the beds are doubles - not! My husband and I did not fit at all and we are not large people. Worst night of sleep ever and we did not enjoy our day at the park the next day. Also, I went to make a wake up call, and kept getting put on hold. This wasted a total of 30 minutes of my time! Yes, it is a beautiful hotel, super clean, and close to attractions. However, with hundreds of hotels to choose from in Orlando, most with free parking, free wifi, and nice bed, it makes no sense to pay the price this hotel wants.

GREAT FOR THE PRICE!

The room was better than we expected! The bathroom had a huge tub and Bath & Bodyworks shampoo & conditioner(COCONUT LIME VERBENA)!!! The food at the hotel was a tad bit pricey, but it was really good! They offer a shuttle to the Disney parks that run every 1/2 hr. Downtown Disney is about a 5 min. walk from the hotel. The only thing that I didn't like about the hotel was that they charge an $8 parking fee everyday.

Great Hotel!!!

Great location right across from Downtown Disney! Disney buses provide transportation to parks and Downtown Disney area. Hotel was very clean. Breakfast and dinner is pricey in the hotel so be prepared for that. There is also a charge for parking. Overall it was a great value for the money but when all the fees were added up we could have stayed in the Disney value resort for the same price.

A little less than magical

Overall room good, just do not like mold in my bathtub!! Need to make sure cleaning people wipe everything down or bleach the mold away!! We stayed here years ago and had a great time but the front desk staff were not the friendliest of people the time.

Worthwhile Choice of Hotel

Hotel is perfectly positioned on Buena Vista Blvd. Prompt bus access to all Disney theme parks; ready access to highway I4. Décor of hotel and room is very attractive and well maintained. Had single problem with AC in the late afternoon: room a bit warm.

it was better before

The pool was not clean, the jacuzzi wasn't either (you can see sand and dead bugs in it). The sheets on the bed had stains on it. and the shower floor and bathroom floor wasn't very clean. The inroom safe wasn't working. I had stayed there before many times and was pleased...this time, I was rather disappointed.

Noisy and hidden fees

very noisy from traffic on I-4 and from noisy persons in the room close to ours! Did not like the additional hidden charges like $8.00dollars for parking and $8.52 for Resort fee???? Nothing was said from Hotels.com about possible hidden fees!

Great room with awesome shower!!

For the money, you really can't beat this one. We tried this on a whim the first time. We liked it so much, we came back and probably will the next time we go to Orlando. We have relatives that have stayed in one of the Disney hotel for a more than we paid and the bathroom and overall room was smaller. If you're looking for the resort style hotel, you're barking up the wrong tree. But if you're looking for a hotel that has transportation to the Disney parks without the Disney prices and don't plan on staying around the hotel (after all you're surrounded by parks and shopping)here's a great one. And did I mention, the shower is awesome!! Talk about massage after a long day of walking and getting beat under the sun. The shower is refreshing after a day in the park. Everything is close. Downtown Disney? Turn left. Pizza place, seafood restaurant, wing place? Turn right. It's all there within 2-3 minutes.
