“Just Ok”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed February 10, 2013

I was looking for a hotel reasonably priced and conveniently located to Disney as my daughters cheerleading team was competing at both the park and sports complex over the weekend. As the team was staying on the Disney property I just needed something simple for me, technically speaking, I got exactly what I was looking for....simple. Overall I am satisfied with the price and location, the staff at the hotel are courteous and helpful and the hot breakfast buffet is nice. Overall the hotel is clean with a beautiful lobby and the rooms are somewhat clean but poorly maintained. The furniture in my room is showing signs of wear and tear with finishes peeling and scratches, dings and gouches which although not "dirty" gives the overall feel of sloppiness. The bathtub had a poorly repaired leak and was rusting at the base of the tub with the wall abutment showing clear signs of a sloppy repair job. The carpet was in need of replacement as it was threadbare and coming up in spots and badly stained.Strangely, even the lampshades were stained? Additionally, my room had an adjoining door something that if I had been aware of would have been a deal breaker for me but as I had made the reservation through Hotwire I accepted the arrangement. The walls are paper thin and I had a restless night as a result. Anyway, I got what I paid for however, I would not make a second visit.

“Bad experience”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed January 13, 2013

We were very disappointed with this Holiday Inn. After we checked in and saw our room and bed, we asked for a refund so we could find another hotel. They refused but we left anyway. I would definitely not recommend this hotel.

“A good place to stay if you're going to Disney”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 4, 2013

We stay at the HI Express for 5 nights over the New Year. The rooms were a little tired, but the rooms were clean and the maid supervisor stopped by each day to check the room and to make sure it was to our standards. The walls were a little thin and you could hear your neighbors, but we turned the fan oun at night and didn't have any problems. The beds slept great. I do have a recommendation that they change out thier pillows, they had pretty much broken down.

Now being there around the holidays made breakfast time pretty crazy. The employees did an outstanding job keeping up with the crowd and they opened an overflow room to help with the extra people.

The pool was nice. There were plenty of fresh towels and places to sit and relax.

Room Tip: I would recommend a room on the top floor. The walls/floors are a bit thin and if you're on the...
