Best Western Orlando Gateway
Pros:

Nice pool, 2 jacuzzis each at a different temperature. Several quiet elevators. The in-house deli and market were well stocked. The hotel bar had a great atmosphere and the bartender Jhonny really knew his stuff! Great quick drinks and he took care of the tables!

HAS EVERYTHING YOU NEED
Pros:

I've stayed at scores of Best Westerns for the past few decades and NO OTHER offers what this one does! Has everything you need, or want! Pool, full fitness center, restaurant w/bar, business center, plenty of free parking, FULL breakfast (at a cost), in-room coffee, complete snack shop/deli, with beverages and gifts! Great atmosphere, comfortable rooms, great views and extremely clean. You cannot go wrong here!

Clean and quiet option in Orlando
Pros:

Second time staying at this Best Western and we had an amazing time once again. The AC unit wasn’t working 100%, but Ivo helped us as usual and quickly fixed the situation with a smile on his face. It’s a safe place with lots of stores and restaurants nearby. Always worth it if you’re looking for a clean and quiet option in Orlando. The bar is also really good!

Go-to Place in Orlando
Pros:

This is my go-to place in Orlando. It fits perfectly for my trips to Universal. The location is great, the staff is amazing—especially Ivo, who always checks us in. The rooms are clean and have great views. Free parking and jacuzzis are also appreciated. Great value.

Best bartender I have had in years. Pay this man more or risk losing a very valuable asset. Seriously, he is fanimanal.
Pros:

Jhonny is the best bartender/waiter you could ask for. Attentive, knowledgeable, unbelievable fast.
Need more people like him. A true leader.
