"Terrible"
TripAdvisor user rating 1.0 out of 5
Reviewed January 10, 2026 NEW
I stayed here when I took my grand babies to Disney. we booked through booking.com and it stated breakfast was included. When we arrived we had to pay for parking and breakfast. breakfast was dissatisfaction. we only ate 2 times out of nine days that we were there. There was dead bugs in the bathroom. I guess at least they were dead. The door was cracked at the bottom. had to take 3 flights of stairs because the elevator did not work. They still have not given me my deposit back but charged me $145.00. at least it was close to the amusement parks. trash was piled up at the dumpster. Room was only cleaned 1 time in nine days that we were there. disgusted. Internet did not work so the tv would not work. And yes I complained and nobody came to fix it. We got locked out of the room after a long day at the amusement park and had to wait for help after 11 pm. Tired children 😡

"Great budget hotel"
TripAdvisor user rating 5.0 out of 5
Reviewed January 03, 2026 NEW
We needed a reasonably priced hotel close to Universal so we picked this one. They had great rates for the week between Christmas & New Years. I always read reviews before booking a hotel. I was a bit worried about all the negative reviews but decided to take a chance. I'm so glad we did! This hotel is exactly what we needed ... a safe, clean, comfortable place to stay that wouldn't break the bank! People tend to only leave bad reviews and never take the time to leave a good review so I felt I should post something for this place because we truly had a wonderful experience the week we stayed. Great budget friendly hotel! All staff we encountered were very nice and always helpful. We were surprised to find out the hotel offered much more than a basic continental breakfast that was advertised on our booking. I have one tip for anyone that reads my review. If you want the Ritz then book a room at the RITZ! Simple as that :) I will be back next year!
