Great deal, love the kitsch factor
Went here for a quick winter getaway for our first time to Disney. Such a GREAT deal especially for how cool the room is. The "fantasy"/ castle theme is done well and the bed is super comfortable. This will be our go to place when we visit Orlando if we are looking for good value.

Castle was Great....BUT....
All aspects of the hotel were awesome. Excellent accomodations, comfy rooms, felt very safe, superb staff and customer service, excellent location, lots to do and see and eat in the immediate area. My only complaint is about the supposed free wi-fi. It is free but is very very slow. They incorporate their network connection into the TV's in the room. A lot of features with TV, movies, music and even a DVD player in the room. The Wi-Fi was just too slow to do any work on-line with my computer. If they spent the money and boosted the connection speed, it would garner a perfect score from me. Overall I had a great stay just disappointed about the internet.

Unusual but fun hotel
Our first room 's air condition was broken and could not be repaired. We were moved into a better room thanks to Jason at the front desk.We bought our cocktails at the pool bar and took them to the roof terrace to enjoy. The breakfast was fantastic. There are many excellent restaurants in the area for dinner

Great deal for families
We stayed there for two nights while visiting SeaWorld that is closed by. There is nothing to complain. The kids had a lot of fun in the pool. There is everthing you need for a stay in Orlando.

Great weekend getaway
Love this hotel is not right on I Drive but close to everything you need! I liked that you must have room key to access elevators so no worries about random non guests wandering your halls. Pool with fountain for the kids and nearby pool bar for parents. Great getaway!

Great for families!!
The front desk and restaurant personnel were excelent and friendly. The help us with all our request. I made the reservations including breakfast and, although in was not in my record they include the breakfast without questions. My only complaint was the lack of good clean services in the room. We were four people and have to ask for the fourth towels all the time, need to request twice for the room to be vacoum, and you can see the dust in the furniture all teh time. The rooms does not have refrigerators.
