Outdated, no room service even when requested: they wouldn’t make the beds after 6 days stay. Bathroom light flickering: requested replacement lightbulb several times but they ignored it. Not enough parking spaces.

Best think about this place is location, location, just across the street of restaurants and other entertaiment spots. Rooms are fair, quite acomodating, and more important reasonable priced. I definitely recommend this place for your stay at Orlando area.

I loved our room, I just wish it had been a bit bigger so we could fit a pack-and-play or something travel-size for our 6-month-old. It barely fit between the bed and the wall.
