Orlando Here I Come
For the money you pay, it is worth it. Do not expect the room to be very clean...check your bed sheet before you jump into a bed. You may find something(s) you may not want...such as someone else hair...I found it twice!

Bleach and noise
The hotel is actually a number of small two story buildings. I arrived not to play but to work. I wanted something clean, easy to travel and quiet. The night I arrived I was given a room that smelled. Just a bad odor coming from the air conditioner. I phoned the front desk who sent someone up with a new room key and the offer to take my bags to the new room. Since I was moving buildings I declined the help since I had to move my car. I did appreciate the free parking! The next room smelled of bleach, especially the sheets. Also the tv picture was fuzzy and the air conditioner was only working on fan. Since it was not hot and I was tired I stayed. The next day I asked for another room. I asked for a quiet place since the slamming of the door last night kept waking me. I shared a door with the room next door. Every time they opened their door it would slam my loose door back and forth. When I arrived home late that evening I was given a new room. This room was okay but old looking. Instead of replacing the toilet seat, it was painted white. Broken tiles on the floor plus the bedside phone and lamp did not work. I was fine with that but the noise above me was insane. Slamming and crashing at 2AM and then waking me at 6AM. I marched down and asked to switch rooms again. The final room was fine. On the second floor so no more noise. Everything was clean, just no frills. So it just depends on how much money you save. I think the next time I will pay a little more and hope for a good room to start,

OK
I was dissapointed to learn that the rate of some $80 per night did not include free WiFi. As a person that travels frequently and needs to stay in touch via internet, this meant a lack of value for dollar. I understood later that most of the other hotels in the area do not include it either. Maybe that means I should just bypass Orlando altogether for travel when it comes to getting value for my money.

Hotel was average at best. Room and decor was outdated!! Vending machines did not work. I would defiantly not recommend this property to anyone going to Orlando!

Interesting property
This is a sprawling complex of several low-rise buildings on the main I-Blvd in Orlando. Nice pools and pool bar. Close to great restaurants. Only stayed 1 night. 33% discount attracted me and is probably necessary in that crowded market. Wyndham is usually a brand you can count on, too. My only complaint was an old TV and too few channels. When I asked about their plans to upgrade TV's in the future, the desk clerk said the property has been sold and there might be several upgrades planned.

Horrible experience, not worth $1 per night
Horrible place, not worth even a rating. Registration is a nightmare one agent on duty while 20+people wait in line to check in. My room was horrible the door was broken and had signs of being forced open with a crowbar. In the middle of the night people scream, fights break out right outside the room door. Don't worry, you can always call security and they attend to the call right away. BUT, do you really want to pay money to stay up all night and play security coordinator? If you bring your family with you, you better hire a therapist because you will need one after a horrifying experience like this. I made the manager aware of the situation and she told me that she wouldn't charge me for the nights I didn't stay BUT refused to refund me for the one night I stayed and had to endure the door slamming, wall hitting, screaming, cursing and fighting right outside my door. Oh well!!! Needless to say I WILL NEVER STAY AT THAT HOTEL EVER AGAIN. I hope if you read this you don't take the chance either.

Convenient but need better wireless service
Great location, hotel but lacked fast internet and wireless. For a business trip, fast internet and wireless service is a must.

Whoa
Wow, the room was antiquated (at best). The hardwood floor was dirty. There was a hole in my sheets. I actually pulled a tile up with my foot (by accident) in the bathroom. It was absolutely not worthy of the "Wyndham" label. I was 100%dissatisfied. Unfortunately due to a large show at the convention center i had nowhere else to go or i would have. I would hold off bookimg here until you read that they have remodeled. It was comparable to a highway motel at best. Whew!

Poor value for the money
Was very disappointed in this "resort". The rooms were old looking, time for a remodel. Our room smelled very musty, was very outdated looking and the bathroom was gross! At least it was in International Drive near the attractions. Other than that, this place has nothing going for it and does not live up to the Wyndham name...
