"It was good you can just tell it’s a bit older and could use some upgrading to things like the pool area. The staff was kind and our stay was not bad, it just needs some small fixes"

8/10 Good
"Our room was great - it was clean and size was just as expected. The location was awesome as it was just a few mins away from the Disney parks. We liked that it was one of Disney’s Good Neighbor Hotels. It was raining when we were there and we had to cross from one building to another to get to our room. I would suggest building a shade in that area or maybe a canopy will be helpful for the rainy season. We still had a great stay despite that! We will stay here again!"
