2/10 Terrible

Michael

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Overpriced

Overall disappointing, some good points - pool, gym and restaurant all positive but poor room condition, and had a very poor experience with the laundry service which required an hour at the reception desk to resolve. Not good enough for the price charged

6/10 Okay

Im a volunteer , Orlando FL

Disliked: Staff & service

Nice hotel but staff is lacking.

I wanted a hotel that had wi-fi, however the internet connection was very inconsistent. The toilet would not flush and I had to inform staff many times to no avail. Later on a plumber came however the problem was not fixed. The hotel advertise free bottle water. However the next day there was no water in the room. I went to the lounge to get water but they wanted to charge me. It became a big deal until the manager came and gave me the water. While leaving the front desk ask me how I book the room. I told them Expedia , they act as if they never heard of Expedia, then she said that the funds were being held up. I showed her my confirmation email and she seemed satisfied it's been paid.

8/10 Good
