"This was by far one of the best hotels we have stayed in as a family! The rooms were spacious & clean, the beds were comfortable, the restaurant that served breakfast was delicious with quick & kind service, and the proximity to Disney was perfect. The hotel lobby was beautiful and every one was very nice & helpful. We would absolutely stay here again if we’re ever in the area! 10/10 recommend!"
