• Staff was friendly, great location would go back, and good work out room.
• Could see where the staff could be overloaded.

“ Would stay again, great location, clean, modest price, didn't like the extra 3 dollars a day added for usage of hotel grounds. ”

• The location was nice and the restaurant was great.
• One of the 3 elevators did not work. They charged an extra fee that was not disclosed.

“For the price we obtained the hotel, it was an outstanding value. However, I'm not certain that I couldn't have done better on my own after the hotel assessed their fees. We left a night earlier than planned and, while I did not expect a refund, I certainly didn't expect they would still charge their fee. Especially since they said part of the fee was for parking and we were obviously not going to be parking there.”

• The hotel staff were super friendly, in room fridge, microwave, and safe.
• The beds were awful and painfully to sleep on the bed linens had several cigarette burns.

“The hotel staff were very friendly!! The beds were terribly painful to sleep on of which had a noticeable dip in the middle. The bed linens (blankets) were paper thin and as a person who likes to sleep with air conditioning, I had to suffer with the uncomfortable Florida humidity because my wife and children were cold. I also believe the air conditioners have internal thermostats to save the hotel money because we could not get the room much below 70 degrees during the day. I received three additional blankets from the friendly front desk to finish out our vacation in comfort but two of the blankets had cigarette burn holes in them. The mugs and glasses in the room looked very dirty and housekeeping never changed them despite generous daily tipping Disgusting and unsanitary! The pool was great, bring your room towels and bug spray for no-seeums and mosquitoes (probably due to recent heavy rains). The game room was like a small converted closet, about 5 games, 2 of which didn't work. They have a small laundry room where I was fortunate to step in a large puddle of water while completing my wash on my third day because of a water leak. The vending machines were removed prior to my stay and the front desk only offered drinks. There is no doubt that this hotel should have been a 1 star economy hotel. They charge a 2.50 hotel service charge per night which is not much but after several disappointments it was icing on the cake.”

• Friendly front desk.
• Very basic, some what run down, needed better housekeeping.

“Overall was an okay hotel. Great location, but the rooms were very basic. I even got an upgraded room and still was far from impressed. Room were outdated and needed to be cleaned better.”

• Friendly staff at the front desk and at the bar.
• Poorly designed rooms and bathrooms.

“Overall the hotel was very nice and clean. Staff at the front desk were very friendly but the cleaning crew was not very friendly. All in all not a bad hotel for business or leisure travel but not very family friendly.”

• The cleanliness and spaciousness of the rooms.
• It was a little farther from Disney than I wanted.

“The hotel was clean and the staff very friendly and considerate. The only thing was that it was a little farther from Disney than I thought.”

• Location .
• Shower didn't work; temperature didn't adjust.

“I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Their shower didn't work. With no water pressure and the water temperature not adjusting, we were forced to wash in the sink. The hotel did have a nice restaurant attached, but you can eat there without staying the night.”

• Rather dim and a bit dirty.

• The friendliness of the front desk was a welcome delight.
• Did not really "dislike" them, but the accommodations were simply basic.

“This hotel is in a convenient location in easy walking distance to restaurants and shopping nearby. Since it's not a new hotel, the rooms are basic, but clean and comfortable. We stayed here before we moved to a Disney resort for the remainder of our trip, and it was perfect for our needs. I would stay in this hotel again.”

• Close to Disney.
• The hotel staff was very unfriendly. It took me 30 minutes to check in because they were talking among themselves.

“The hotel had been remodeled (paint) but there was mold coming through on the ceiling in the bathroom. And the hotel had a strange smell. It worked for my 2 day stay and I might would stay there again.”

• Location is great for those going to Disney World.
• Beds are small and not very comfortable.

“Hotel is very average in terms of comfort and cleanliness. However, it's location to Disney World and low cost maybe worth it to people looking to be close to the park, without paying Disney Hotel prices.”

• Fantastic location.
• Public areas needed refurbishment, aggressive timeshare pitch at "ticket sales" desk.

“We got a room with a refrigerator and microwave. The room looked like it had been refurbished recently. It was clean and basic but nothing outstanding. A few days into our stay, we did have a problem with ants in the closet and bathroom. We notified the front desk and they took care of it, and we did not see any more ants in the room the rest of the stay. We were primarily looking for a place to lay our heads between visits to the Disney parks, and this fit the bill well. The location in proximity to Disney is wonderful.”

• The location to WDW was great!
• The hotel staff was not too friendly/helpful.

“This hotel was in great proximity to Wald Disney World. It sure beat paying the price of one of their resorts since we spent most days at a theme park rather than at the room. The staff wasn't the best, though. The only room available upon check in was the handicap room. Every time we used the shower it flooded the bathroom floor. The next day we were able to be get a regular room; which turned out fine.”

• Cleanliness and location.
• Didn't find anything unsatisfactory.

“This hotel was perfect. The lady that checked me in was very friendly and she was helpful when I asked her for directions to where we were going. Sometimes I wonder what the condition of the hotel and rooms are in. I was pleasantly surprised how clean the hotel was.”

• Next to a Denny's restaurant.
• Paint peeling, dirty door frame, slow draining sink, worn linens.

“I would not recommend the Clarion Main Gate to other travelers. The paint was peeling, the drain in the sink was very slow, the sheets and blanket were very worn, and the bed was very hard and lumpy. Also, the bed was a regular double, rather than a queen that is expected at the 3-star hotel. The interior is mostly painted in yellow, which was faded and dirty.”
