Stayed for a quick weekend trip. This hotel has become one of my favorites. Everything went smoothly, from check in to check out. It’s easily walkable to the Boardwalk and EPCOT or HS, but you also have boat access if you like. Even the accessibility to other resorts nearby. Lots of food options as well. The room was clean and smelled so good! The lobby is beautiful. We absolutely enjoyed every minute. We will definitely be back.

Great place to stay when visiting Disney theme parks. Walking distance to Epcot and Hollywood Studios.There are many different restaurants options as well as shopping. The parking and amenities fees were a bit high. I wish they would add it into the total price of the hotel room.
