Had a very pleasant experience for $45.00 per night. I was fortunate and I did not have to drive to the hotel. This location is on the busy section of International Drive. The good side of it's location is that it is walking distance to Wal-Mart, Walgreens, Wet & Wild, plenty of restaurants and adjacent to a mini - grocery store and a Dairy Queen. The bad side of it's location is the traffic is very slow and dense. It could take some time to travel up and down the strip.
If you are willing to take public transportation, I observed bus after bus going up and down the strip. I did not observe many people waiting very long at all to catch a bus. The hotel advertises a free shuttle to Disney Parks, so that is even a bigger plus.
The hotel offered a continental breakfast from 6:30 - 9:30 am, of which I did not participate, but it sounded good. Accross the street is an all you can eat breakfast buffet !
My room was at the rear of the property, which was adjacet to the highway, but I was not overwhelmed with any noice level. The hotel is older, but overall clean and much better than camping.
The pool area was nice and plenty of chairs to lounge with. The club house area had flat panel televisions mounted under a covered patio area next to the pool. The club house also had a small arcade.
For the money this was a pleasure to have the opportunity to stay somewhere clean. And do'nt forget Dairy Queen is in the same parking lot, adjacent to the hotel!
