NEVER AGAIN
By Lucy, 12/23/09
When we arrived we went up to our room to find another family still in there!! Complained to reception and was given another room, which had the door handle was hanging off and the door wouldnt open. Was fixed but took quite a while. Room was VERY dated and in desperate need of some TLC! There was a lot of building work going on at the hotel which we were not told about at anytime on the lead up to our stay. When we asked about the work we were told it was only cosmetic and there would be no loud noise. WRONG!!! We were rudely awoken most days during out 14 night stay by loud banging at 5.30am and the drills, circlar saws etc carried on throughout the day.
The staff weren't very helpful. When asking them about travel to and from the parks they are desperate to sell you everything they can. They charge $16 each way per person to the Disney Transportation Centre and the bus times are very limited and can be difficult to get on (especially after wishes). We then found out after a week by a really lovely i-ride driver that there is a bus that goes from opposite Seaworld to Downtown Disney and to the Disney Transportation Centre. These run every half hour and are fairly easy to get on as it is public transport!! From the hotel it was costing us $4 each per day to get to disney and that was on 2 buses (#8 from i-drive to Seaworld and #50 to Disney). I dont think i could ever reccomend this hotel to anyone (even my worst enemy!)
