We booked this property for 2 nights because of the extra space a 2/2 provides us as a family. The employee who checked us in was cheerful and welcoming. He explained the breakfast area, pool, and hotel quiet times. The hotel is older with outside style doorways like an apartment complex, and no elevators. We were on the second floor and are in good health so this wasn’t an issue for us. There was a HEAVY smell of marijuana in the parking area and first floor area of our building. We were pleasantly surprised that our room smelled freshly cleaned and that there were no disturbances throughout the night. The AC was sufficient but the guest room stayed a little warmer all night even though we only had 1 person sleeping in there. The bathrooms are SMALL. Full kitchen is stocked and ready to use once you purchase your groceries. Coffee is provided as well as sugar, creamer, salt, and pepper. The extra space of a 2/2 is a HUGE benefit to this location. It is about 15/20 minutes to the Disney parks and about 10 to universal. Disney springs is about 5 minutes. All traffic dependent of course.

I would book again, but I would request a room on the main floor with a view of the pool area. We stayed on the third floor, and there was no elevator, so we had to make several trips with our luggage. The pool was great, and we enjoyed it while the AAU officials were there. The atmosphere by the pool was lively, with everyone having a good time. However, my daughter commented that it reminded her of a nursing home because of the number of older people. I didn't notice many children during our stay. Great place and clean.

Hotel was clean and comfortable for the price. We got upgraded to a 2-bedroom suite, which was very nice! It's close to Disney, plenty of restaurants, and shopping amenities. We would definitely stay here again for our next trip to Orlando. My only "complaint" would be that the TVs in the rooms need an upgrade, but that's not a necessity. 5 stars!

The property was clean and in a great part of town. It was close to Disney and all the fun in Orlando. The pictures online had it looking much more impressive than it was. The pool specifically looked huge online but it was not huge at all.

The overall stay was pretty good. The room was good the only down fall is the microwave is out dated so it took multiple times to warm food up. Newer appliances would be a plus.
