Stayed to visit parks

Room wasnt ready until 4 but was lovely and clean. Kids enjoyed the pool. We stayed at club level, which was great. Breakfast was great and good coffee and drink selection for the children. Shame that snacks in the evening are 8-9 becauae surely most people are still in the parks then - we were at least. Like we've found throughout our stay in Florida, toilet paper is terrible here too. Bonus having fast pass and early entry to the parks

Not interesting is fixing issues

The hotel was nice and we expected more but sadly it was ruined by the toilet, the toilet kept refilling and it drove us mad. Reported it at 4pm and was told that it would get fixed, came back at 9.30 and reported it again. Had to chase up after 10pm because son just wanted to sleep. They couldnt do much due to time (if they came up and fixed it earlier wouldnt be an issue) told us they would fix it the next day - problem is we was only staying 1 night. I honestly thought staying at a top hotel we wouldnt have issues and no sleep
