Facility was nice, bed and bedding wasn’t.
Pros:

Value and spacious room size

Cons:

Bed was uncomfortable. Covers were scratchy. Pillows immediately become flat and uncomfortable once you rest your head.

Casi Bueno. Pilas con el parqueo no es gratis
Pros:

Las Habitaciones si estaban limpias y comodas

Cons:

El mal anuncio de tener parqueo gratis y llegando allá por día cobran 21 dólares casi 100 dólares fuera de mi presupuesto. Y nada de eso decía en el anuncio
Además nadie hablaba español. Deberían tener alguien que hable.
El sistema de parqueo si o si te exigen que tengas un número en Usa

I probably would not choose to stay at this hotel in the future.
Pros:

The location and price

Cons:

The floor was in the living room area was covered with black bugs. The nightstand between the beds was covered with a sticky substance. I was expecting a room with a balcony as pictured when I selected my room, and we did not have a balcony. Paying for outside parking is ridiculous!!!
There was 1 decaf coffee and 1 regular in the room. The coffee pack holder did not fit into the coffee maker, so we had to purchase coffee.

I would stay again unless it was for work. The breakfast not actually there was a minus for someone traveling for work.
Pros:

Everything was wonderful! My trip was for the IRS Forum. I extended my stay for some family time. We had a great time. But I had counted on the breakfast. There was none.

Cons:

I was very disappointed breakfast was advertised but there is no breakfast!!!

Good property, just needs a bit more management to iron on some small problems.
Pros:

Close to Disney Springs and outlet shops.
Laundry facilities and the swimming pools.
Buses to Disney parks.

Cons:

That we had to ask for towels and toilet paper on regular basis. The cleaner didn’t replace them.
A few busses for later pick up from Disney after the night time fireworks/shows.

Not a good value for the money
Pros:

Daniel Carino is a front office manager , he is the only staff that deserve and excellent rating , other staff are below average . I have been to other courtyard by Mariot where suites were spacious and elegant , this is not even half the standard .

Cons:

Suites are too small
