Before booking this I had read mixed reviews but I'm so glad we booked this as it was excellent!
We travelled with some friends and when we arrived our Travel Agent had only booked 1 room but the hotel staff were great & found us another room across the hall from us straight away with no fuss. The check staff were friendly and anytime we needed to ask a question, whoever we asked on the front desk was really helpful.
The rooms here are HUGE! We were amazed at how big these rooms were and even managed to ballroom dance round it!! The only let done was the size of the bathroom - it was so small it was funny, especially in comparison to the size of the room - the wardrobe was probably bigger!!! But then again I didn't need to spend long in the bathroom so the size wasn't a problem, just a strange use of the space available. The TV has loads of channels but we didn't spend loads of time n the room. There is free coffee making facilities and a fridge in the room, which was great as we had busy days going to the Disney Park.
The hotel has a lovely pool area - although it was a little cold to spend long in the pool when we were there - the jacuzzi next to the pool was lovely and warm, which was great.
We ate in the hotel restaurant 1 night, the service and food were great, but there are cheaper places nearby and this is more for adults than children.
We chose this hotel as it was close to Disney, without paying the Disney hotel price - the hotel offers a free shuttle every 30 mins between the parks which we used every day to save paying for parking. It was always on time and very useful. You could walk to Disney but you have to cross over some very busy roads and after walking round the parks it’s the last thing you want to do!
There is a shop in the front lobby which doubles as a snack bar which sells sandwiches, breakfast snacks and coffee etc... we saw this but didn't actually use it until the last day - big mistake as it was very reasonably priced and had a big variety - a definite must for brekkie before going to Disney.
Other people have complained about the noise - we didn't find it noisy at all, only when the fireworks go off at Disney - they sound like a bomb going off in the room, but you get great views from the hotel, and they only last for around 10 mins.
Top tip for dinner - Mimi's cafe - it’s just outside the Disney entrance and its excellent value for money and the food is lovely. Don't be put off by the wait if you go around 8pm as this is the most popular time - its well worth the wait! We also went to IHOP, again just outside the Disney entrance, for lunch and this was good value for money too.
