Attention to detail packs a bit. Light bulbs out, half the bed lights didn’t come on, paint on the walls didn’t match or wasnt properly blended. Overall stay was ok.

Family friendly and affordable. Its walking distance to Adventureland. Their breakfast bar was wonderful. We usually struggle with breakfasts hotels because of our picky eaters. Our kids enjoyed making their own yogurt parfait and ate every last drop. Our room was CLEAN, modern and spacious. We enjoyed our view to the park from our room. We plan on going back & have already raved our stay to the staff before leaving and letting our friends know about this BW.

Dated design but well kept. Budget friendly. Unfortunately the room we had was extremely humid. All of our bed linens felt so damp they were uncomfortable to lay in. The breakfast had great options, it was small and crowded on a Monday morning. And the server had a hard time keeping up on stocking it. Our room was nice with a hideaway bed.
