Not even worth the $80 I paid

Someone in the parking lot was honking their horn for literally two hours beginning at 1:30 am. I tried calling the front desk and no one answered. Then the honking stopped after something that sounded like an explosion or GUNSHOT. Even if it weren’t for that experience, I couldn’t rest. We stayed on the middle floor and could hear the upstairs guests dropping items LOUDLY and the guests in the room next to us arguing and then they watched Law and Order. It was like we were in the same room as the other guests. I had to leave for the airport at 5 am with two young children while utterly exhausted and scared. Luckily we only paid around $80 for the night. I wish I had paid $20-30 more to stay someone I could actually sleep.

Listen to the reviews

Everything was fine until we came home from a long day at Disney to the room smelling like marijuana. It was ridiculously strong. Our room neighbors (there were 2 thin locked doors between the rooms) had different sleeping habits then we do so they were up late each night watching TV and I know no one can change how thin the walls are, nor habits of other guests but the walls are for sure very thin and it felt like we were having a sleepover with people we didn’t choose. You could hear all their conversations clearly and when they watched TV I thought one of my kids was watching it on their phone but it was their TV. So it was noticeable is what I’m trying to get at. I had read the reviews prior to booking and other people had commented about the thinness of the walls, but I just thought for sure it can’t be that bad. So if you are a light sleeper or that bothers you, definitely take that into consideration. We came for Disney and it was just hard to get our sleep we needed for the days ahead. But the beds were clean and they were comfortable, so that is a huge plus! They also offer a free breakfast in the morning and it was good. It was exactly what you would expect. I do wish that the floors were much cleaner. When we came into the room and unpacked and took off her shoes, we then headed to take our showers for the night so we could settle in and when we got into the shower, our feet was already dirty. Like black. It was gross. Apparently, they don’t mop their floors o

So firstly I have to say this hotel is very clean. The room looked newly redone and redone nicely. The beds, floor, bathroom and the furniture were clean. No problem there. The hotel looked almost fully booked based on all the cars and I never felt unsafe. The problems that the property does have though are enough to make me question staying here again. Firstly, there are BIG gaps at the bottom of the door. Anything could sneak in. Secondly, no curtains, just a blind and a sunscreen. The bathroom fan is very loud. There was only one small metal chair in the room. Because of the gaps in the door you could hear almost all the noise from outside: the people walking by, the cars, any noise from the people next to us. And maybe just me, but the blankets on the beds were the loudest blankets. Anytime one of us moved the blanket would crinkle, yes crinkle.

The stay was fine but the hotels inside door's connected to each room is a safety problem! But overall the rooms were decent!

Overbooked

We booked a room with two double beds to stay a single night on a road trip. We drove all day, arrived about 10pm and they had given away our room. They overbooked, and the only room left was a single king sized room. No pullout sofa, no cots available and no extra bedding available. Our son slept on the floor with a bed made of pillows and a camping blanket we had in the SUV! Another family arrived while we were checking in, there room was given away too. I’m not sure they got a room at all!
