Liked: Staff & service
What I liked: The staff are stellar and extremely helpful! Ellyse provided a lot of great information for our trip and helped us with early checkin. It is also close to the park which made it convenient for traveling. What I disliked: The posting states newly renovated but it appeared more so like it’s currently under renovations as half the furniture looked old and did not match the newer portions of the room. Half the outlets did not work and in the main bedroom our A/C and lights went out by the last night. The drains were also quite backed up. Also, be aware of additional fees held by the resort that are not taken into account at check out for all people who like to plan out their budget as much as possible (even if your check out states it includes resort fees). Also for adult groups traveling, they only have one queen bed with two twin bed room options where the twin beds are not the comfiest.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I had read reviews whereby people complained about dirty windows, worn out couches and the bar & restaurant not being open often. I still booked for 2 weeks because many reviews mentioned it was clean and that’s what’s important to me. Check in was easy. The room was extremely clean (1505A). The staff were very friendly and polite including the maintenance and security personnel. Yes the windows needed cleaning but not on the inside and not at ground level. It would take a window washer for a high rise. Yes the couch could be replaced but it was clean. In this economy, a person would be wise to stock the fridge with their beverage of choice along with some food. If the restaurant is closed, a 5 minute walk gets you to a hundred options on International Drive. We were extremely pleased with our stay from April 10 to 24 and would highly recommend the Westgate Palace.
