My stay was okay. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel at all.
Pros:

It was close to Disney

Cons:

Hotel is older. Shower in my room didn’t work right. The lever to adjust the water would move on its own. $25 per night parking. And not enough parking I had to park in a handicap spot and I was in fear my car would be towed.
