Fourth stay at this hotel. Definitely my Orlando home. Love the staff, the service, the location. Simple and affordable but everything you need! Love it for EDC Orlando! Staff accommodated my best friend and I as we wished and made us feel at home. The manager is a beautiful woman who is helpful and her staff are well trained. They will see me again soon

The hotel has a very good location but the cleanliness is poor. The room was only cleaned once in a 6 night stay. There were cockroaches in the room. The pool was not available and there was no breakfast. They only had coffee in the lobby but it was not always available. I had visited the hotel in previous years but found it to be in disrepair.

Property was going through major renovations and most of the building was closed down. The section that was open for use was in very poor condition, including holes in the walls, doors that wouldnt lock or wouldnt open and very little security

This was THE BATES MOTEL in real life. They didnt have an elevator and there were wasted plastic bags of garbage in the hall. Not to kention the big balls of ANTS that wre plaguing the vathroom. I couldnt put my toothbrush or anything else in there for fear of it being infested. They also had all the dcposed wires from the ceiljng necause they were missing evey other ceiling panel.

The staff were lovely and checked us in right away and did not make me pay a pet fee, for which I was very grateful. The beds were very comfortable. However, the rooms were very dirty and the fridge in one of our rooms never worked. We reported it the first night and no one came to repair it. It feels like the hotel is an old building in need of lots of repairs. We did notice there is a renovation happening so we are guessing all of this will improve in the future. We were just grateful there was a space and we had a place to go to escape the hurricane so for that we thank you. It served the purpose we needed.

I booked a wheelchair accessible room and then called in advance to make sure it was wheelchair accessible as said on the website. They assured me that it was. When i arrived, it was NOT WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBLE! I couldnt even get through the door to the bathroom! When i asked if they could switch me to the proper room, I was told they wete fully booked AND they didnt have a room in the hotel that accomidates wheelchairs! It was an emergency situation because i was evacuating there from a hurricane. ALL the hotels in the area were full at this point. I had no choice but to stay. It was so filthy and disgusting. Couldnt take our shoes off the floor was so dirty. The bathroom was disgusting. There were roaches crawling around. It made my skin crawl. When the hurricane hit, water poored in and completely flooded it! I went to the front desk and asked for help to be moved or something to at least stop the water from coming in. They guy said they didnt even have towels to give me, was nothing he could do for me. I had to eventually call 911 to ask what should i do. There where flash flood warnings and wasnt suppose to be driving. With me being in the wheelchair, I had no way to go upstairs. I ended up driving in the middle of a hurricane to find another hotel at 3am. Unreal!!
