100% better than spending a fortune on a Disney resort hotel!
Pros:

5* for the staff they were amazing! Asif was so friendly and went above and beyond for anything i needed and gave me free late checkout, Precious was super warm and kind, and Arracli made breakfast so fun, chatting to everyone:) Location was amazing and rooms were really spacious and clean. (Full length mirror in the bedroom for the girlies wanting to take pics before heading to Disney!🤣💕)

Cons:

Nothing, it was a basic and convenient hotel and amazing value for money, just no wow factor

Pros:

The location is pretty prime if you’re interested in Disney parks

Cons:

The room itself felt grimy, when I walked in it felt like it was just stale air, the floor and carpets felt like they hadn’t been cleaned in awhile and I ended up wearing socks to not feel like I was walking on a dirty floor. The sheets at the very least looked clean but also just felt grimy, ironically the hotel itself felt and looked clean but my room just felt dirty. I would’ve said something when I was there but I only stayed for 1 night and didn’t want to gamble moving to another room just for it to feel equally or more grimy

Great for a short term stay or if you plan to spend most of your time at nearby attractions.
Pros:

I liked the pool, and the staff.

Cons:

It was lacking a hot tub. They only provided very basic tv programming. You cannot log into your streaming services unless you bring your own device.
