The room was clean. Staff was courteous. The location was pretty good for what we wanted to do in Orlando. I could hear a lot of noise from my room of other guest coming and going and that made it hard to sleep. Also the first shower I took the water was not very warm. I had a long flight and wanted to take a nice hot shower and it was not, however when I got up early on another day the shower was hot.

Booked for the pool and hot tub. Both were closed for repairs. Asked to cancel so we could go elsewhere and was told it was non refundable. Front desk stated city walk was “accross the street”. It was a 20+ minute walk at a brisk pace. Room and bedding were dirty. I have pictures of rusty screws on the ground on side of bed and chunks of moldy debris and a hair on top of bedding. How hotels.com rates this an 8.0 is beyond my understanding.

Room was very dirty, there was a roach in the “suite” area. The suite was not even a suite, you walk into a room with two beds then theres a separate room which is supposed to make it a suite. Won’t be going back there. I changed my stay to this hotel instead of my previous stay across the street based on the reviews which were definitely not accurate.

During check-in around 11 AM, the front desk receptionist was extremely rude. He didn’t greet us, seemed annoyed the entire time, and responded to basic questions with attitude. When my wife asked about the pool hours, he snapped that it was “on the paper” and then told us the pool was closed and that if we went after hours we’d be charged—followed by the inappropriate remark, “which I don’t think you can afford.” This level of disrespect was shocking and completely unacceptable.
