Accommodations Review: |
I LOVED this hotel. It has the feeling of a deluxe hotel
for a fraction of the price. Bellmen, room service, large pool
with pool bar, 2 restaurants on site, etc... My 4 yr old
daughter loved the glass elevator and the pool. The pool is
pretty big and has a shallow end and a deep end up to 10 feet
deep! The rooms were large and a fridge only cost $11.00 for
the entire stay! Plenty of towels (we had 6 bath towels fresh
each day), and plenty of shampoo, soap, etc.. I really felt
like I was staying at an upscale hotel. We had a big balcony
on the 9th floor and overlooked Disney and DCA. We had a
perfect view of the fireworks and watched them testing the
lights at DCA every night. I would highly recommend staying
here. The ONLY thing I didn't like was that the hotel didn't
have laundry facilities. There was a Laundromat about 1/2 mile
away. |

Restaurant/Lounge Review: |
We only ate at the coffee shop restaurant. Our package
included 4 free breakfasts. The breakfast portions were
huge....you could easily split one meal between 2 people and
still be full. Kids ate free in the restaurant for lunch and
dinner. We ate dinner there one night and the food was really
good. We also had room service dinner once and it was also
good. The other restaurant is a steakhouse, and I heard it was
good, but we were not in the mood for steak while we were
there! |

Pool Description/Comments: |
The pool was advertised as Olympic sized, and it is large,
but I don't believe it is Olympic sized. It has a 10 foot deep
end, which is fun for the kids jumping and diving. There is a
nice hot-tub that fit a lot of people. Beside the pool was a
pool bar where you could get drinks and appetizer type food.
We had virgin strawberry daiquiris one afternoon, and they were
very good. Room charge is available at the pool bar. |
Other Comments: |
I highly recommend this property. It is in the same price
category as many of the motels on the strip. I also stayed at
the Candy Cane Inn on this trip, and they were both the same
price. This hotel FAR out does the Candy
Cane! |
