near to everything staff are all welcoming and accomodating for 6 days of staying only tried twice the breakfast buffet and it all the same everyday maybe it will be more excellent and appealing to it if they will change the menu every other day, but our experience is exceptional kudos

This hotel provided a nice & home type of environment (as far as the style of the rooms). My room came with a fridge & microwave so that was great for warming up leftovers. The staff was friendly and offered great conversation. The property was also not that far from Universal or Islands of Adventure and was affordable. The complementary breakfast was decent and provided different options per day. I enjoyed the seasoned potatoes. The only issue I had was that even though we stayed 4 nights and was told ahead of time that they provided light cleaning, when our room was cleaned (only 1 day) they forgot to leave us our towels. So after spending the whole day in the parks and coming back late we just contacted the front desk and they was able to resolve the issue. Overall, I would stay here again.

Parking with the hotel was very expensive and was much cheaper in the lot next door (and free during the day). The bathroom door also would not stay shut. Otherwise, very clean and comfortable, if small, room.
