I heard an employee telling people at 9:30 to start
lining up for the 9:45 shuttle and if that one got full they might
send a second one. |

Accommodations Review:
|
A bit smaller than I'm used to but it was fine for
one person. I think four might be a little crowded, especially if
all were adults. There were two double beds, two dressers (the TV
was on top of one), smallish bathroom, and an in-room safe.
Everything was clean and comfortable. |

Restaurant/Lounge Review:
|
I didn't eat there but the deli on site could make a
lunch to go with 24 hours notice so you could take it to the
parks. |
Activities/Facilities/ Amenities Available:
|
Sundries Shop, Pool, Hot Tub, Laundry, In-Room Safe,
Non-Smoking Rooms |
Pool Description/Comments:
|
The grounds were very nice and the pool area is
towards the middle of the facility so you can definitely have a
quieter room. There's about 400 rooms in just two stories so it
does stretch out for a while. They have a lot of courtyard
tables and chairs that were nice and shaded. |
Other Comments:
|
I am not a fan of offsite hotels but I will
recommend this one to anyone. It's cheap, clean, and close to the
parks. Also, there is an Avis rental car location here. |
