Good experience. Everyone was pretty friendly. The gentleman who appeared to be the manager was micromanaging his breakfast staff, which is not a bad thing. He seemed as though he was somewhat rude to them though.

Great

This is a great hotel. Super clean, super quiet and every employee I encountered was very nice and engaged. Highly recommend. The only complaint I have is that the chair in the room is incredibly uncomfortable. It's nice to have a place to relax other than the bed, but that was not it. This was a double queen standard room. I booked a king with extra floor space in order to have a sofa to chill on, but was told upon arrival they had none available . I later that night checked the hotel website and they did have what I booked. I was too tired to press it, but I also did not like that. May be because I did not book on their site. I am a platinum elite IFG member just did not book directly this particular time.

After being stuck in Orlando for over 25 hours I had called the facility to cancel my reservation and he said I needed to call Orbitz. When I did call Orbitz they called the property and they refused a refund. It was of no fault of me.
