Accommodation was of good size and as advertised. We didn’t use any of the facilities as we were out and busy every day so I can’t comment on those aspects. Could be better: The beds were very hard and quite uncomfortable unfortunately. If I wasn’t so exhausted at the end of each day I wouldn’t have slept. Husband said the same. The pillows… Read more
Accommodation was of good size and as advertised. We didn’t use any of the facilities as we were out and busy every day so I can’t comment on those aspects. Could be better: The beds were very hard and quite uncomfortable unfortunately. If I wasn’t so exhausted at the end of each day I wouldn’t have slept. Husband said the same. The pillows provided had two options, a soft option and a firm option however they were all extremely large so if you’re smaller in size like me (5 foot 3) you might want to bring your own; they were so large they put my neck on a funny angle and gave me bad neck and shoulder pain. I ended up sleeping with a rolled towel under my neck which worked fine. What we liked: The location was very good, we had a rental car so we were 10-15 minutes drive from Universal. Parking at the accommodation was free which was great. Convenient location as it is located directly across the street was a CVS, 7/11, Pizza store, Indian take away store and also a massage place called “Eastern Massage” which was much needed after lots of walking and travel.

I took my family to Disney World early November and booked this hotel based on the website. The complimentary ALL AMERICAN BUFFET consisted of scrambled eggs, sausages, potato wedges, yogurt, donuts, cereals and breads (along with coffee, tea and juices). This was the same Every Day! The Calypso Bar and Grill, along with the The Rum Bar are next door, not on site. On the good side, the Pizza Bistro was very good, the rooms nice, and the pool area nice but small. All in all, I would not stay here again and would stay next door at the Caribe Royale! Read less

Nov 12, 2023 Fsaxton Santiago, Chile

The rooms are good but… at breakfast everything is served in plastic plates and dishes. Everything goes to trash without any recycling process. It absolutely impressive that this kind of places don’t care about environment. We don’t recommend places like that

Room was very clean, spacious and modern. With a bedroom, bathroom / wash basin area and a lounge area with fridge & coffee making. Whilst the bathroom had a shower over the bath which I find a little dated the shower was powerful. Location was great for Disney & easy to get to I4 for Universal. Across the road was a CVS store for essentials… Read more
Room was very clean, spacious and modern. With a bedroom, bathroom / wash basin area and a lounge area with fridge & coffee making. Whilst the bathroom had a shower over the bath which I find a little dated the shower was powerful. Location was great for Disney & easy to get to I4 for Universal. Across the road was a CVS store for essentials but very nearby is a Walmart and several restaurants and the LBV outlet shop. Parking is also free a bonus! Breakfast was included with a range of pastries, yogurt, fruit, bread and cooked. Whilst the range was small it was more than adequate and changed daily for some variation. It set us up for the day. The pool was small, but met our needs and we were able to use the Caribe Royal pool next door. The only down point from our whole trip around this hotel is that the pool cleaning dragged on so the pool never opened until about 11.30 most days! Would stay again, for the price, the size and layout of the rooms, breakfast being included and location we could not fault and had a great stay to explore Orlando Read less
