This hotel delivered all they offered. My family enjoyed every amenity and had a blast at their pool recreations. My husband and I both agree we will stay again. There was a slight issue with a neighboring guest but the Hotel quickly resolved the problem.

Resort fee? How can you put an Apple Bee's and a dysfunctional wet playground to your hotel and be called a resort. Yes, there was an arcade but half the game was old and from my parent's generation. How can you put a 46in TV in a dark room and call that a movie theater? At least have the movie... More

My boyfriend and I live in Tampa and are Disney annual passholders, so we make mini trips to Orlando frequently. We booked this hotel "blindly" as a Hotwire secret hotel. We booked it as a 3.5 star Lake Buena Vista hotel...and that is what we got. We initially thought we were staying at the Holiday Inn that is closer to... More

I stayed here for one night with my daughter who was checking in the next morning for the Disney College Program right across the street. I booked this room early and paid $66 plus taxes for a grand total of around $80. This was quite a bargain. The double room was absolutely HUGE with a nice bathroom, good-sized refrigerator, and...

This hotel is a total rip off. The shuttle that they say takes you to all the parks does not ! And if you dont go by their scheduled times for departure and return, you have to find your own way back. not to mention that the return times were ridiculous. i arrived at the hotel around 1pm for check...

The only criticism I would have with this hotel is that it is easily confused with the hotel with the almost identical name which is based in Downtown Disney. This also obviously confused our Travel Agent as we specifically asked to be located DT. That said, this hotel has many plus points, Applebees, nice pool, pool bar, clean rooms etc.... More

My husband and I stayed here only one night before our vacation at a disney resort. I think I would have rather spent the week here. Our room was huge and could have easily fit a third queen bed. Everything was clean and even smelled clean. Parking was great as every building section has its own entrance. The pool and... More

Our stay at this HI Resort was fantastic! Our room (640) was spotless and had a great pool view. My family agreed that the beds were more comfortable than ours at home, the linens were fresh and new, the room & bathroom size plus the storage available were better than many higher-end/pricier resorts. The shower pressure was the BEST and... More
