Good location, great service. If you are going to Orlando you just need a clean and secure place to sleep. This hotel has that and more. I even saw Disneys fireworks from the hotel room. I would stay there again.

Location, location, location
Location is what this hotel has going for it. It's really in a great spot, situated very close to Disney's Animal Kingdom in particular (which is where we went). It is surrounded by restaurants and shopping. It's easy to find and easy to get to. Inside the rooms, it's pretty much average. Nothing special, but no complaints either. Neat and clean. Exactly how you want a hotel to be.

Ugh Spend a few dollars more and get a nicer hotel
The beds are okay and its a place to sleep, thats about it. We had a compact fridge sitting on the floor of the room and it was leaking, so the carpet around it was soaked, had to step over that. the faucet was leaking and the cold water knob was SUPER GLUED to the base of the sink. I had to wash my face and hands in hot water. I would turn it on splash my face and then turn it off bc if you go longer than 30sec then the water would be scorhing hot! The shower was moldly. They had siliconed over some of the moldy areas too. The shower just "looked" dirty. I'd recommend this to a road warrior but not to a family staying close to one of the theme parks.

Relocating to Orlando.
I was relocating to Orlando and this hotel gave me the best value for my money as it was close to my new office and had everything I needed to relax and get ready for work. It has three dining options which were open till late and helped me very much with my busy schedule. Recommended for tourists too as it's close to all the Disney parks.

Good value, but dated
I was at a conference at the Gaylord Palms, which is just down the road 10 minutes. But the rooms at the Gaylord were extraordinarily expensive. So I booked a room here, pre-paid, for a great price. It is very close to Disney World as well. There is nothing bad about the hotel, it is just quite dated. Probably built in the 60s or 70s and not updated since. There is a decent pool and workout facility.
