Park Shuttle Comments:

Didn't use but it seemed like the arrival times in the morning were
limited - just a couple of times. And the return times were very
limited. For example, Animal Kingdom closed at 8 and the return
times were only 7 or 8 at night. You're pretty much stuck at the park
until then. |

Accommodations Review:

I thought this place was fine for offsite. I requested and got a king
bed which was nice. There's an in room safe (decent size - can't fit
a laptop or camcorder but everything else will fit), hairdryer, and iron.
Everything was clean and the housekeeping was efficient. The location for
being on 192 was great. It's right at an intersection with a traffic light
so getting on and off 192 was a breeze. It's further east than I like but
the traffic wasn't a problem until later on in my stay. There's
plenty of restaurant choices within walking distance and a ton within a
short drive. I'd definitely stay here again if I got the same rate. |

Restaurant/Lounge Review:
|
The restaurant was OK. Nice selection of dishes but when I went on a
Wednesday night at 6, it was deserted and the service was so-so. I did
dine by myself and thought the server treated other, fuller tables a
little better. Food was OK - nothing special but I didn't feel like
going out. |

Pool Description/Comments:
|
My room overlooked the pool although I didn't use it. It was big enough
and there never was a crowd. Seemed fine for the hotel. |
Other Comments:
|
There's also a shuffleboard court here and the golf referred to is a
putting green. Both are next to the pool and both got a good workout while
I was there. The grounds are nice and well kept. |
