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.

Great bed and bed clothes, multi-pillows were excellent.Floor needed vacuuming. White power near door. Bathroom mirror needs replacing. Would have liked this place ten years ago. It needs a refinishing and a lot of TLC.

Rooms were good.Rates quoted by hotel were less than what the taxi actually charged for transport to Universal Studios. We had asked 3 rooms for 7 nights. I called in a day before arrival to confirm if they had a fridge/microwave in the rooms. I was ...
