Please dont be put off by the bad reviews of this hotel.

i must admit when my husband and i pulled up in the car i did think 'oh my god what a dump' but that is just the view from the outside. i have to say my opinion quickly changed. i found the rooms to be very clean and comfortable. dont get me wrong it isnt up to 5 star standards but if you can get a good deal i would recommend staying here. reception were great and offered to book a restaurant for me for my birthday ( i hadnt told them but they noticed. i thought that was a nice touch)

the walk to disney is only about 15 mins. unless you have small children i wouldnt bother with the bus it really is quicker to walk there.

we ate in the restaurant most mornings and i found the staff really helpful and friendly. the food wasnt great but was perfectly acceptable.

if you are looking for a hotel that is clean, comfortable and close to disney i can highly recommend this hotel.

This hotel is rated 2 1/2 - 3 stars by various websites. Only gets that rating because it has an on-site restaurant (which I never saw anyone in and on my first night stay, it was closed and I was told I would have to eat in the lounge, which also had no one). Their website claims it has wireless internet throughout the hotel and I also confirmed this with a phone call to the hotel prior to my trip. I should have asked if it worked!!! Me, and several other hotel guests who were in town for a Design Automation Tool convention, were in the lobby trying to get a connection. The hotel website states it has a heated pool. There is a pool, but it is definitely not heated. Also, it is filthy. The water is murky and there is sand and dirt all over the bottom. Even my 9 yr old noticed this. I do have to admit that the rooms were clean, although run down (peeling wall paper, filthy draperies). If you can get a deeply discounted rate and will spend most of your vacation in D-Land, then this place might be okay. Otherwise, find someplace else....

I got this place for $60 a night. Rack rate is $99 a night.
Staff was friendly. Location was great. Rooms are run down but it is under renovation. They have safe deposit boxes at no charge to store you valuables. There is also a little gift shop in the hotel.

Location to Disney unbeatable for this price. Also car rental places are within walking distance. Don't waste your money on a Disney Shuttle bus, you can walk it in less time and use the saved money for something else. Location to Ihop's and Denny's is great. They have a breakfast buffet but I did not try it. There is a bar that they use for lunch and dinner during the low season, but service is terrible and the price over inflated. There is a pizza shop a short walk away from the hotel, big pies for a reasonable price. Other restaurants and gift shops are in the area. A cold stone creamery is opening soon (was being finished in May 2008) and it is on the way to Disney.

The hotel lobby is nice. The concierge was bored as it was low season. The bellman was very friendly. The lobby is nice. There is a business center with computers for rent. Room is run down, but due to be refurbished into Red Lion standards soon. The second tower is being striped and redone when we were there. The front desk was friendly, but jammed me up on the room. 8th floor by the ice machine. Elevators are spacious enough for bell carts and people and work all the time. The air conditioning heater units are loud. The maid service comes early, so be sure to put out your Do not disturb sign if you sleep late. Beds are nice. Room furniture is in good condition. Carpet was ok. Drapes are ragged and only block out about 80% of the noise/light. Bathroom is a nightmare. Shower/tub is rundown and old. It has the two knob hot/cold water knobs. The hot can get REALLY HOT to the point of scalding if you are not careful. Tv is what you would expect of a cheap flea bag hotel and not a Radison or Red Lion. The tubes of the tv were on their way to being dead. The reception stinks. The computer system that connects to the tv is slower than a car with 4 flat tires. So rather than a nice hotel of 3 stars or more I would rate this hotel as a run down 2 star.

This would have to be the most horrible hotel we stayed in in our 17 day trip in the US. It was faulty towers the 1st night we stayed in a room on the ground floor in the second tower next to the sliding door which does not slide it is like a train track so all night we could here the door opening and closing. When we got ready the next morning asked to be move to another room and they put us next to the air conditioning motors walked into the room and out again and ask for another room we are not complainers but lets be real. We were then moved to another room which had no noise so we could get some sleep which was wonderful. On our last night the fire alarm was going off for no reason so every couple of hours you would have a alarm going off as you are trying to sleep no one seemed to no why or even came to speak to us about what was happening. One Good thing was the guy at the Porter Desk Ceaser he was very helpful. Breakfast was very average in the hotel buffet and they just add there tip into the bill, which for us Aussies is a bit hard to handle. Any way be warned do not stay here.
