Our room had two double beds, TV, clock radio,
phone, safe, heater/air conditioner. It was nothing special and
barely met my standards for cleanliness.
Positive: Low rates. Great location on the west side of the WDW
main gate entrance along Route 192 making a quick and easy commute
to WDW. Free continental breakfast offered which consisted of
coffee, orange juice, mini bagels, cream cheese and pecan and
cinnamon rolls which were all plentiful and good.
Negative: The motel was old and there was no evidence of a
recent remodeling even though the Knight's Inn web site said it
was built in 1990 and renovated in 1995. I'd say is was built in
the 1960's and renovated last in the 1980s! |

Pool Description/Comments:
|
Drove by the pool area but did not use it. Appeared
to be a small pool with lounge chairs and tables/chairs around it.
It was located along the motel drive way and across from the
office. |
Other Comments:
|
If it wasn't for the dirt cheap rate we were paying
along with the great location and free continental breakfast, I
wouldn't have stayed past the first night. I don't think I will
stay here again unless, of course, it is a choice between visiting
WDW and staying here or staying home!! |
