Check in and check out were both quick and efficient, and our room was clean with very comfortable beds and pillows. However, there was a very large gap under our door, at least an inch. I could easily fit my entire hand through it and a wide variety of things could have crawled in with us overnight. Actually shocking that we saw zero bugs while in there, considering that. We stuffed a towel into the gap, but that is not ideal. We were looking forward to our breakfast in the AM, but had to skip it and leave due to the fact that it was in a tiny room with a huge crowd of people and nowhere to sit or even move around. It was quite claustrophobic in there, to say the least!

Room appeared clean until we saw a few bugs on and near the beds. Toilet was clogged and didn’t flush until it was resolved >24 hours later. Breakfast was lacking in protein options. Same sausages and eggs served the whole week we were there. Wouldn’t mind it if they didn’t charge a “resort fee” to include breakfast. Rather have spent that money elsewhere for breakfast. One positive is getting beds made and room cleaned every three days. Close enough to Disney and that’s the main reason we booked this hotel/motel. Probably wouldn’t come back here unless prices are significantly lower compared to other places in the area.

Room was decent. No insulation between the entry door and the outside. Otherwise clean. Moreso what was annoying was the constant sound of helicopters.

Discovered that our mini fridge was not cooling after already buying food. I went to call the front desk, but the room phone didn’t work. So I had to walk down to the office late at night. Asked the front office staff if they could send somebody to resolve the issue. She said there was nothing she could do until morning. This was after I had already explained that I had food sitting in that fridge as we spoke. We temporarily put some ice bags in the fridge to help. The next morning we went to go leave to the parks, found out the only elevator was out of order. This is extremely inconvenient with a 3 year old and 8 month old. Had to carry the stroller and babies down by hand. This caused me a lot of pain as I have some pre existing injuries. Came back from the parks that day and discovered that nobody did anything with the fridge. Our food was spoiled. Possibly the worst hotel stay I’ve ever had.

The room was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was good. Only negativrs were that the elevator was not working and taking luggage upand down three flights of stairs was cumbrrsome. Also, the front desk staff seemed to have little knowledge of what was around the hotel. For your information: CiCi's pizza was on the same block and a quick walk from hotel and you can see the high Magic Kingdom fireworks from the third floor in certain places. Not a lot but it may be fun for children to search for.
These two ducks were waiting outside the lobby every morning at breakfast.

Disappointing stay top to bottom! Hotel room very dilapidated with the following: limited outlets or non functioning for electricity housekeeping had to be reminded multiple times each time we’d like our room cleaned but never even changed the bed linens or towels (had to stop the laundry room to ask for towels and no Kleenex ever to replenished only the front desk staff spoke broken English Got to listen to 2 helicopters roar with take off/land on property from morning till 11pm, the complimentary breakfast was actually pretty good but tended to be empty hot food options and baked goods as only one staff was working to replenish items but by 9am most everything was gone and out of stock. No fitness center onsite unlike most Wyndham based hotels. Disrespectful guests vey loud and revving their cars in the parking lot. A hotel for the ghetto and will never be returning back to this hotel again! Avoid this place like the plague.

The room wasn’t that clean, showed on website a beautiful pool, yet upon arrival the pool was functioning & closed. I have nerve damage (neuropathy) in my legs & was told elevator was in working order due to us being on 3rd floor, but upon arrival that was false & I had to walk up three flights of cement steps. This is a hotel that’s very very misleading & nobody working could hardly speak English or understand, it’s Howard Johnson on website, yet once you enter building, it clearly says Developer Inn. Please be very very careful when considering booking this hotel.
