Great Stay!
The stay was incredible and the room was so very amicable. So much so that I plan on bringing my boyfriend with me to treat him. I checked in with Evelyn, and she was absolutely amazing.

They not only took care of us with the scooters that were rented, but then made sure that our room was accessible for it. Very friendly with great opportunities for the whole family!

Great stay for Disney
Great view for the fireworks at Disney and the room was nice overall. Only complaint was the big dome windows on the top floor floors Don’t have any coverings so it’s very bright in the morning.

Would stay again !
Staff were very friendly and made sure we had what we needed. Offered us early check in which we needed since we arrived very early from our flight. Super close to the entrance to the park maybe about 8-10 minutes.
