6.6/10
I recently stayed at this hotel for a Disney trip, and it was a mixed experience. The location is fantastic for getting to Epcot and the boardwalk, which made park visits easier. However, the service left much to be desired, particularly regarding the handling of luggage and room changes. While some aspects were enjoyable, like the pool access, I was disappointed by the room condition and overall value for money considering the price.
Rooms
