  • Large rooms, very close to all the main attractions.
  • Smelled a bit.

“Great hotel for the price. Very large. Had a kitchen and everything.”

  • Had many roaches and 1 night no heat - 24 degrees outside.

“Staff was very friendly, but on all three floors, none of the ice machines worked, had many roaches which I hope I didn't bring home with me. Every day the key cards didn't work and had to go walk to the office to correct and the temperature outside were around 20 degrees and the last night the heat didn't work.”

  • It was close to Disney World.
  • It was dirty.

“The hotel was moderate, the floors were very dirty and it did not accommodate young children well. But the staff was very friendly. But I would not stay at this hotel again.”

  • It was affordable, the desk attendent was quick and efficient. Location was rather ideal.
  • Older carpeting and fixtures needed attention. Cleanliness wasn't quite amazing.

“The hotel was clean enough for a solo traveler, and the location was perfect for me. If you need somewhere affordable to stay, this one isn't a terrible buy.”

  • Desptie the initial grungy condition of the room, our chamber maid did an excellent job cleaning the bed, bathroom, and surfaces.
  • The carpeting was darkened from years of grime and always damp.

“The staff did a very good job, but the facility itself could use a once-over, cleaning and maintenance wise.”

  • The room was clean and we got exactly what we expected to get.
  • There was a hidden $2.50 per night resort fee.

“A Hojo was a Hojo but the staff was very good and seemed to be on top of everything. The room was very clean and everything worked.”

  • Proximity to our interests.

“Since this was a repeat stay, this hotel was that we had been quite satisfied previously.”

“The staff was friendly and did not give us a hard time when we went back to the desk to get our money back after we found people already checked into our room.”

  • It was a wonderful location. Close to Disney World!
  • The television was nailed to the floor and did not allow for the connecting door in the middle of the rooms to open completely. Only half way.

“My family and I had a wonderful stay. Nice employees and great location!”

  • It was really convenient to all the places we were going to and easy to find.
  • It had a mildew smell.

“This was a good hotel for the use. We weren't lounging in the hotel just sleeping there and it served its purpose. Wish they offered larger beds for double occupancy.”

  • The house keeping kept up more or less our expectation, this was very important to us.
  • You can't get Wi-Fi in your room, unless you are in hotel lobby. limited cable channels.

“It was really clean. They had good cold air conditioner. And centrally located for all activities and restaurants. We definitely stay there again.”

  • Price.
  • Rooms are not attractive and gives motel like feel.

“Nearby to Disney World and Universal Studios. But the rooms are not attractive and gives a motel like feel (buzzing air conditioner, it was so noisy in the middle of the night, had to get up and switch that off). They also charged me some surcharge and it came to $15. I would not suggest this to leisure family trips. This place is best suited for friends who want to explore nearby theme parks.”

  • I liked the location. It was close to everywhere for fun and food.
  • I did not find the hotel to be very clean.

“The sheets and blankets on the bed were not clean. Yet, it was a good location.”

  • It was quite and the bed was comfortable.
  • My only problem with the hotel room was it had a major roach problem.

“We spent one night out of our 7 night honeymoon at this hotel. The staff was friendly, parking was abundant, and an IHOP was right next to the hotel. My only problem was that when we woke up there were roaches crawling over the walls, near the sink, and we even found one in our bed. The room appeared to be very clean and all but the roach problem was enough for me to consider not staying a second night.”

  • Cleanliness.

“The hotel was okay - but the hotels I stayed at before the last days of the trip were really nice and I got spoiled. This hotel could have improved its cleanliness - I just thought it wasnt as nice as I thought it was going to be.”

  • Everything.

“The pool was dirty, the TV remote did not work, there were some very loud kids running around after midnight. We reported this to the front desk and nothing seemed to be done about it. I made a 15 minute phone call to Chicago and was charged $25!”

  • I found the room to be clean and house keeping was friendly.
  • Front desk girls rude, hung up on us when we called to confirm reservation and we got there they seemed to be more worried about leaving for the day.

“We liked the location, hotel was clean front desk attitude needs help says wireless connection for computer but the 3rd building where we were staying was not updated for this. nice to know if you depend on your computer for a lot of things.”

  • Clean and secure good location with many dining options.
  • No wireless internet service in Building 3 where I was located.
