This is a good, modern hotel, located fairly near to many of Orlando's attractions. The hotel offers transportation to quite a few theme parks and there is also a desk where you can buy tickets before you go. The rooms are all well equipped, spacious and clean and some come with a fridge and microwave, which comes in very handy, especially during the hot weather! There is a wide choice of restaurants and shops within walking distance of the hotel but the hotel's bar/restaurant and deli do good food too, although a little on the pricey side. The pool area is clean and pleasant and the staff are really helpful with any queries or problems too.
