Accommodations Review:

The staff at this hotel was excellent. We stayed on
our honeymoon and they went out of their way to accommodate us.
The rooms were always clean. It has three pools, one which is
heated and even an outdoor hot-tub (which we used every night
after a long day at Disney). |

|
$89.00 |

Restaurant/Lounge Review:
|
This had a lounge that served subs and wings at
night and also had drink specials every evening from 6-8. The
restaurant had buffets for breakfast and for supper in the
evening. Good food for the hotel. Priced at $6.99 for
breakfast and I believe $8.99 for the evening buffet. |

Pool Description/Comments:

Three Pools. One heated and two not heated. Very
clean and nice sized. Had few lounge chairs but enough for our
visit. (who lounges around the pool when Disney is down the
street?) |
Other Comments:
|
If you need to stay off Disney property this place
was great. They do have a guest services place in the lobby that
can assist with tickets and transportation to anything. They were
always smiling and very helpful. |
