My tub ran during my entire stay! The staff said they would have to turn off the water to the whole property to fix it. They didn't even offer to switch my room.
Hot water was An issue for bathing. Needs deep cleaning or new cushions on pool chairs. Sweet duck couple out at the pool asking for snack and friendly with people daily. Carpets could be steamed cleaned. Or replaced. Our king room didn’t have a sofa just one chair in the room. Bar and hotel staff very nice. Bar has specials (smaller bar) has some food- chicken tenders were really good actually and cheese sticks fries...it was an ok hotel. Close to international drive so can walk to restaurants. By area in Orlando is very high in crime esp shootings so we drove esp at night and traffic is crazy. Over packet city! We were coming from a fancy resort so our expectations where higher.
Great stay for rate! Staff courteous and helpful. Enjoyed the more than adequate space. Enjoyed healthy breakfast. Food was tasty. Was able to use computer facilities to print out our airplane tickets.
If you like lumpy pillows, lukewarm drizzly showers and the worst battle royale breakfast you can imagine, this is your place! Oh, and when they tried to lure us into a timeshare sale, we jumped at the opportunity!
Even though the check in clerk wasn’t busy checking in people, he told us to wait 10 minutes while he chatted with friends and a couple women. After waiting more than 25 minutes, I was told the room wasn’t ready. It was 2:45. I asked when the room would be ready. He said maybe 3 or 4. I stated that check in is 3. He commented that “he doesn’t work in housekeeping”. I returned around 8:30 and had to wait another 15 min. The suite turned out to be large and fairly nice. It definitely needed to be vacuumed, but the towels were clean. The bed linens appeared to be fresh but were very wrinkled so I could only hope so. I only stayed the night so the only thing I attempted to use in the full kitchen was the mini coffee maker which leaked hot water all over the place and tripped the circuit. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was ok. For the price I paid it was a good value. Breakfast was average but it was sufficient since we were in a hurry to get to the airport to catch a flight home and didn’t have time to stop for breakfast. I did not use the pool or their shuttle service.
Shower temp never got above luke warm, bathroom sink did not drain, back door didn’t work, breakfast was sub-par, seldom anyone even at front desk. Old, dated and very stained.
My experience was an enjoyable and comfortable one. Staff was accommodating and pleasant.
We had a great time at this hotel. It’s very close to Universal Studios. It offers a variety of services very convenient for travelers like the free breakfast, free shuttle to the main theme parks, free parking. The suites are clean, in good condition and losded with all the necessary. I recommend this place!
I will definitely return Reception staff was very slow otherwise a wonderful experience
Room not as advertised, too small, chair hits bed, no hot water, no refrigerator in room as advertised
Can't have super high expectations for such a low price. The hotel is a bit old and outdated (super slow elevator was our only complaint) but overall it's a clean, safe, convient, comfortable place to stay for the night. Clean sheets, clean room. Kitchenette in room. Warm pool and hot hot tub. Kind, accommodating staff. Standard free breakfast (fake egg patties, sausages, oatmeal, breads/muffins/pastries, cereal, fruit). Coffee and tea free all day. Great happy hour on Wednesdays and Fridays. We didn't use the free park shuttle service but good to have the option! Heads up that there are only a couple options each day and you need to book it 24 hours in advance. Overall good experience.
Nice hotel, very close to everything you wold like to see in Orlando. The only problem was very slow internet connection
The reception staff was courteous. The hotel does have a concierge. The suite we had was big with a full kitchen. Although we did not use the dishwasher it most definitely needs a new one. New paint is also needed. The hotel needs to be freshened up and Cleaned. The sheets were just pulled back over the bed as they were all crumpled under the cover and was not folded over. There was mascara stains on the pillowcase. :-o The bathroom was decent. One small bar of soap, one small tube of shampoo. Not enough for 3 guests and our suite could sleep 6 people. The bathtub faucet had a continuous stream of water while it was shut off. The kitchen has a full refrigerator. There is something inside the garbage disposal or is in need of repair. Breakfast was so-so with not many choices. Very difficult to move between guests to get to counter and buffet. There is no flow from one end to the other for food and it is chaotic in the morning with everyone trying to make the One shuttle bus to Universal. Make sure to "reserve" your spot the night before. The bus was late. One shuttle in the a.m. and one in the evening back to the hotel around 6 p.m. If you have early entrance to the park you will need alternate transportation as well as if you would like to stay till 10 p.m. when the Universal closes. All in all, it was reasonable for one night. This will not be our choice of accommodation for our next trip.
Just returned home from a week stay in Orlando. The staySky Suites was an excellent choice for our family. The hotel staff were all very friendly and helpful, clean rooms and relaxing pool. It was a very affordable stay with easy access to the parks.
We only stayed one night but if we travel back to Orlando to visit the parks we will definitely book at staySky Suites. I chose this hotel online based on the photos, price and fact that they have an actual AC in the room versus a window unit that so many of the hotels still have. I also liked that the kids were able to sleep in the living area on the pull out couch while my friend and I had two comfy beds in a separate room with a door. We got to the hotel early Saturday morning before we went to Universal and Islands of Adventure. There was a little confusion with our reservation but it was quickly fixed and we were able to upgrade to two beds with no extra charge. They let us check in early with out an early check in fee so we were able to take our bags to the room and head to the parks which were approximately 2 miles from staySky Suites. The room had a small kitchen with a full sized refrigerator, two stove top burners, cabinets, dishes and a sink. A living area with a couch, tables and tv. And a main bedroom and bathroom. Perfect for a family to comfortably stay several nights and not have spend every meal at a restaurant and not be on top of each other the whole time. I have to mention Michael Angel. He fixed our reservation, no questions asked and even refunded a double charge with out being asked to do so. He caught it on his own...made the refund and then gave me the refund receipts when we checked out.
We enjoyed staying this hotel. We really liked the heated pool and hot tub after a day at Disney. The breakfast was average. Some of the food was cold and the room was very crowded on Saturday. The room worked well for our family with 2 separate rooms. The pull out sofa was in one room and the 2 queen beds in the other. It was nice to have a small kitchen. My only complaint was that the room smelled musty. I think someone had probably come into the room wet and now probably needs new carpet.
Conveniently located to Orlando attractions Small room but perfectly located
Nice stay at your hotel Nice stay at your hotel Nice stay at your hotel Nice stay at your hotel Nice stay at your hotel
It was worth the money But the ac needed cleaning... Little outdated ,but for the price you cant beat for the suite layout
Well, this is not Ritz but it gives you good value for your money. You get your basic breakfast and a shuttle to the parks. You get your full kitchen with a fridge. Location is good right between all the parks. The gym and the pool are very basic, but I had no time for them anyway, so I never used them. There are some restaurants around. The hotel is nothing fancy all around but definitely nice and will help to save you money, especially if you have a family as even cost of breakfast can quickly add up for several people. Unfortunately there is no shuttle from the airport to the hotel and Uber does not pick up at the airport.
