Orlando Vista Inn at Lake Buena Vista An Ascend Collection Hotel, Orlando

Good location and price... but the breakfast was limited, the rooms were old and worn pretty hard. The elevator would not come level to the floors making it hard to get carts in and out. The hot tub blew out. The rooms had an odd smell to them and the whole place seemed kinda poorly maintained and dank. And the bar would not allow me to charge to my room. The shuttle to the park was a waste of time. They could not print me an actual receipt for my room (we had paid online). Sure it was a good price, but only when one figures in positives for the above list. I stay at a lot of hotels - I would be hard pressed to stay at this one again.

Stayed 3 days here as sort of a mini get-a-away. The location was great, close to attractions, food, and shopping. The service was a little suspect and the continental breakfast was minimal. Overall, the place wasn't bad but not great either. I would stay again but only if we got the same price deal.

After booking another hotel and leaving because it was a disaster, we decided to try this one. The staff took very good care of us, and we really enjoyed it! We had breakfast in bed, and enjoyed and relaxed in our room. Our room was VERY clean, and everyone there was super friendly! We will definately be back-- probably very soon!!

We found everything great! The staff was very nice and pleasent. We were close to The Disney parks, Downtown Disney, and there were places to eat near the hotel. We will be staying here when we visit Disney again!

Looks clean and nice on the outside, but wait until you get inside the rooms. Beds were sooooo bad that we had neck and back pains our entire 7 days we stayed in Disney World from 1 (One) nights stay in this hotel!!! - Not worth the $$$$$$$$$. Don't stay here if you can help it. The location is not worth it!!

me and my girlfriend were down in Orlando for Wrestlemania and stayed here..its a great hotel and directly to the right of Disney World's main entrance. the staff was friendly, took our bags up to our room; we made reservations about 5 months ahead and got the room as promised, it was clean but I dont like staying in hotels much anyway. they invited us to a timeshare at Wyndym's Disney resort and knocked $100 off our Universal Studios tix. they have a great gift shop, restaurant, heated pool !, whirlpool and gym. negative is the internet cost $5 per half hour unless you bring your wireless laptop down to the lobby where its free. I'd stay here again on my next visit!

For the price and location you just can't beat this hotel! We stayed during March 30 to April 1st, with husband and two girls 5 and 7. This is the first time we stayed off Disney property and were a little leary, but were very happy with the vacation. This has a fun theme with the bright colors and is a really nice hotel. (So the outside paint may be a little faded from the sun and the hallway walls a little scratced from cleaning carts, who cares?) The girls were in heaven with their Junior Suite bunkbeds. For $83 this is a great hotel and in a good location, it was a steal! Very easy to find right next to the entrance to Downtown Disney. The U-turn was not hard at all to make at the light. They let us check in at noon since our room was available and they were very friendly at the front desk. The girls were thrilled with their stickers and cookies. The bellboy was very sweet, right away showing us how to work lights and remote channels for the girls. When you change a channel with the one remote it also changes the bunk area's as well. You have to cover it just right so it wouldn't happen. The junior suite was huge, well decorated, maintained and cleaned. The girls got a thrill out of the fan towels/bathroom tissue. We were in room 506, with a pool view that was nice. At night, we slept good, forgot we were on the main road. Couldn't hear the traffic until we heard a couple of sirens, but I guess that could happen anywhere. The bed was soft and comfortable along with down pillows and blanket. The pool was well kept. Girls loved the kiddie pool, good temp for March/April. Plenty of chairs and sun, not very crowded. No cabana bar, but my husband came prepared with a cooler. There was a Market K right next door, along with several restaurants and a cheap gift shop. The only complaint would be the coffee shop/restaurant, but you can walk anywhere to get a reasonable meal. They had funky hours, closed between 2 and 4 pm? The pizza and barbecue chicken sandwich tasted like frozen, microwaved burned food. The ladies didn't speak much english and couldn't describe the menu items, "Chicken and rice with sauce, don't know what kind". But the subs came on good fresh bread and were fine. Frank, the manager was eager to talk and give the girls a cookie (only saw him in the morning). The bar/lounge area was also never crowded. Lucy, the bartender is a character, very friendly and fun to talk to. She was eager to give you a good deal on the specials of the day and free munchies, peanuts and somekind of chex mix. All in all, this is a great deal. We stayed at Pop Century, Coranado Springs, and Port Orleans at Disney and hated how everything was so spread out. Our favorite was Disney Wilderness Lodge because it was convenient. But this is only an 8 minute ride to the Magic Kingdom. Well worth it to drive if you can. For a fraction of the price this place is definitely worth it! Thank you Orlando Vista for a marvelous vacation!!!

After reading over 100+ reviews, we were treated very well as soon as we walked in the door. The front desk, bar, restaurant, and housekeeping staff were all very helpful. The walls in on the way to your room do show wear, but the cleaning carts must hit it. The pool area was clean and there was a kiddie pool & whirlpool. I never had to wait long for anything. There are cab drivers 24hrs out front to take you anywhere you want to go. They will also come a get you whenever you call them. I would like a fridge, free internet in the room and more channels on the t.v. to watch. We would stay there again.

Our room was clean. We needed a handicaped acessable room it was nice, although no rollin shower.Two very comfterable beds It was on the 7th floor so if the elevator didnt work we would of never been able to get my mother out! Toilet overflowed three times but they finaly got it going. We would opt to stay in disney next time. Did not spend much time at the hotel and drove to the parks. no free breakfast as advertised in their internet ad.

Front Desk Staff very friendly and helpful. Room was nice and clean with 2 queen size beds. The only negative thing I could say about hotel was that the elevators were real busy (only had 2). Would definetely stay again!
