Great value, excellent service and very clean rooms. The pool is HUGE. The location is great for restaurants. You could walk to many nearby restaurants with or without music. Easy access to Trolley to take you to all the parks or the hotel has a shuttle. The aps and pool bar are not complete yet, but not a big deal.

This hotel was nice, but undergoing renovations. There was a cafe in the lobby area, but the rooms were located in nearby buildings. We got "upgraded" to a king suite which had hardwood floors. The setup was good. Pool area was okay as next to it was where the renovations were happening. Good enough to stay if you are not... More
