I requested a late check out to get rest after an exhausting weekend, physically and emotionally. After being awakened by the cleaning staff talking in the hallway, I contacted the front desk. I heard them being contacted via radio immediately. Afterwards, they completely discontinued their conversation and I was able to get the absolute best sleep. I really appreciate their efforts and professionalism!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities

Bathroom the size of a closet, TV going in and out, very noisy in the lobby with groups of people playing cards as if it was a Las Vegas casino, and loud outside of the hotel. Front desk person when asked to fixed the television told me maintenance was gone for the day and no other way to help. And on top of it all, I had just come from Disney and paid less for a Disney hotel than I paid for this bad experience. If they are going to maximize profits based on what events are happening in the area, then they owe it to people to also maximize service and be prepared for the high volume.
