Accommodations Review: |
Overall the hotel was nice. The colors were extremely
bright. They grow on you after a while. We stayed on the 7th
floor, which was a nonsmoking floor, but there was an awful
scent in the hallway. I am not sure if this was from the
equipment since we were on the top floor or if it used to be a
smoking floor. The room was very clean and had a pleasant
smell. It was also spacious. I tried to upgrade to a suite,
but the hotel was booked-we really didn't notice it because
they did a great job with controlling the crowd (group of high
school students). I never heard them. |

Restaurant/Lounge Review: |
The bar was great. Bartender had been there for 25 years.
Everything she made was great! Ate breakfast in the restaurant/lobby, which was a bit overpriced for what you get,
but it was pretty good. There's an IHOP next door. |

Pool Description/Comments: |
Nice sized pool. It looked clean. I didn't use it. |
Other Comments: |
Overall, nice hotel. If you are on a budget, you get more
than what you pay for. Right at the entrance of Disney. Bright
outside decor was a bit much. Rooms are exactly how they look
on the their website. If you don't want to be bothered by time
share representative during check in tell them you already
have your tickets to the
parks. |
