I've stayed at many Clarion Hotels. This one did not seem to be very old and yet it was quite shabby. Both the carpeting and the tile floor in our room was sticky. We got a sandwich at the snack bar there and the bottom was covered in mold. Would reccomend this place only for its location (directly ...

My husband and I stayed here for a much needed break after spending four days in Disney with both our families and our two young children.

The hotel was fine and met our needs, considering that we spent very little time there, mostly just to sleep.

Not very impressed - user review
The pictures for this hotel made it look really nice,but overall, my husband and I were not impressed. The bathroom ceiling had started to grow some mold on it, and we had a leaky toilet that we heard all hours of the night. The breakfast was not worth the money that we had spent for it. In my opini...

Close to all area attractions. It is not real upscale like most Clarion Hotels, but fits pretty well. I think it is more of a Comfort Suite. The front desk staff is bland.

Overall the hotel was just ok, but if I had my choice, I would not stay here again. The 2 1/2 star rating is inflated in my opinion. We ran into a few issues during our stay.
