Pros: the room was clean and comfortable, quite large the bedding was very nice no problems with the room itself the hotel was clean and functional--we were only there one night so i didn't get a chance to see the pool, but i'm sure it was fine
Cons: too many"extra" charges--taxes, resort fee etc. Too big and corporate feeling--i felt trapped in there there was a long line to check in the steak house was extremely pricey but cookie cutter...we were two women (model & writer) the sharpest people in the room and they stuck us at a dark, table in the back of the room and offered us the stingest wine pour I've had in years for a $12/glass wine. there was no charm or authenticity, felt totally impersonal staff were okay but acted more like hourly-wage employees (ie: didn't really care or seemed to have no idea what hospitality really means) perhaps it was b/c it's spring break, but the other guests were poorly dressed and lacked manners I would take a charming and well-run inn with less bells and whistles, but a decent chef, bartender and some personal touches over this any day

Pros: The pool was wonderful (although it rained all week - I squeezed in one time to visit). The staff was great. It was beautiful - everywhere. Free parking with handicapped tag! This would be a great place to stay for young people who walk well - especially with children who could enjoy the awesome pool. Very easy to get to in the elevator in second tower. We liked to lights under the furniture that seemed to be motion sensitive!!! They did have coffee maker in room and fridge - but no freezing compartment or microwave. Plenty of very fast elevators!!!
Cons: It was just too big for people with mobility issues. Asked for a room by the elevator so they gave us a handicapped room pretty far down from elevator. From the second tower, it was very hard to walk to a restaurant in the hotel. We were there for a conference in Conference Center "across the street". Tried very hard to research best hotel. No shuttle from Hyatt because it was "too close", but way too far to walk - so had to take taxis. They had shuttles for other hotels in the area. Not so sure about the TV in the mirror? Maybe it was because it was a handicapped room but the only time you could see it was while using the sink - and it interfered with line of vision to put make up on, brush hair, etc. for a fairly short woman. Did not like paying up front months in advance... For this price they should offer a free continental breakfast! We stayed in a $65 hotel the night before and the room was similar - and they offered a free full hot breakfast.
Excellent

Pros: The best mattress my husband and I have ever slept on! The pool is fantastic with attentive pool-side wait staff. Staff was very good about making sure smokers went to designated smoking areas when by the pool. Perfect for a quick weekend getaway!

6.0
Pros: The hotel room was good with most amenities provided. The swimming pool was large enough for adults and families with kids to enjoy within the same facilities.
Cons: Despite all the good qualities, this hotel experience was ruined by the nightly resort fee of $20 charged during checkout. As far as I read during the booking process and the Terms and Conditions, this nightly resort fee is not mentioned anywhere, and guests believe that the amount that they pay through online booking sites are the total mandatory fees, with only optional incidentals charged during checkout. This is deceitful to the guests. Either include the resort fee in the upfront charges or state that this charge is mandatory and will be applied during checkout.
Excellent
8.2
Pros: - Great front office staff - Excellent concierge - very fast elevators - The coffee in the room was great - TV in mirror was great (yet it did not change channels or volume correctly) - housekeeping evening service was excellent when I called for more water and coffee - comfortable bed - fast operator responses and efficient over the phone - centrally located near OCCC. A lot of walking is needed as the area is massive - Great restaurants near-by - beautiful pools yet the weather was unfortunately too cold to swim
Cons: - Took a long time to get hot water in the shower during my 4 days stay. - Bathroom cleanliness was not the best I have seen. I always noticed an odor and felt it was not fresh and fully sanitized - The TV in the mirror did not work correctly and seemed to hang up when i try to change the channel or raise the volume - I had mold in the shower grout, yet this was fully cleaned on the 3rd day I was there. - safe battery was weak and barely opened to get my stuff out. Then it did not work afterwards. - TV had an issue and did not work on my 3rd night. I called it in yet I did not get a tech within 50 minutes to fix it and i had to sleep in the afternoon before going out. When I returned late at night the TV was fixed. .

Pros: This hotel is super convenient for visiting the universal parks. Your room key is your express pass, which is a huge a bonus. Rooms size was decent and has keurig and mini fridge. Beautiful grounds, nice pool, friendly staff.
Cons: The beds/pillows are not very comfortable. While the pool area is nice, I wish there were a second “quiet,” or adult pool with additional hot tub. This hotel certainly caters to families, but not everyone has kids, and something less chaotic for relaxing would have been nice.

Cons: I had a wet spot on my carpet and found a hair on a "clean" towel.

Still disappointing though, for the price you pay to stay here, you don't expect any snags.

Pros: Lobby and Christmas spirit. Orchids and overall ambient . Water taxi not needed to drive and parking. Breakfast service. Exelent dinner at hotel restaurants. Very friendly staff.
Cons: Room gray colors. Like in a funeral home. It may be trendy, but not pleasant at all.Window view from Tower 2 shows a really neclected landscaping, which is incomprehensible in such nice otherwise hotel.
Good
6.8
Pros: Location, public areas (decor and ambience), Express Passes for the parks.
Cons: New bedroom decor is a disaster. Feels like a 70s nightmare and cheapens what used to feel like a luxury hotel. Same goes for the corridors leading to the rooms. The building of the Saphire Falls also ruins the outlook of the hotel. It used to feel like an idyllic South Pacific getaway. Now the view reminds you that you're just in another hotel block, so that special feel has gone. Lastly, charging to park in the hotel car park? Really? That really is fleecing your guests. over the years I've stayed at this hotel probably half a dozen times. I won't be back unless things change.

9.1
Pros: Great location, with included Express Passes. Hotel overall was excellent.
Cons: The rooms needed some maintenance, and I cannot be the first ones to notice it. There was mildew in the shower on the ceiling that needed to be bleached. The shower leaked into the bathroom, because the original construction did not properly angle the tile to make the water drain back into the shower. The sink stopper did not stay plugged. The phone in the room did not work. Again, I cannot be the first person to notice all these. Why have they not been addressed?

Pros: Universal early entry and express passes are invaluable. Spotless hotel and pecable staff. Room clean but small (then again you are only in to a very short time).
Cons: Parking $23 + tax per day or $29 plus tax valet parking. Priced cleverly so you will opt for valet. Either way this cost is just a way of adding $ to your bill. Make sure you factor in an extra $58 plus tax per overnight stay. As long as you know to account for it when booking then it's more palatable.

Pros: The room and property were great! Love the décor and details at the hotel. My puppy, who came along for the trip received a welcome bag which included a very cute Hard Rock dog bowl. We would have loved to stay there more days since it was so comfortable and felt safe. The ease of getting to City Walk be that by boat, or walking was awesome! Also, for being guests at the hotel, we received complimentary Express Pass to both Island of Adventure and Universal. That was neat!
Cons: The only bad thing was Housekeeping...timing housekeeping to clean the room so it wouldn't cause a scene (barking, making the dog nervous) with our puppy was rough. We had come back from the parks and would wait up to 2 hours before we left for dinner. I called housekeeping to come in and clean the room, telling them that I will be out within the next 2 hours, so if they could send someone ASAP so we are with the puppy be that in the room or outside of it (the puppy would stay in the room while we would be out on dinner). No one ever came to turn our room over and we called front desk several times and waited the 2 hours. I guess housekeeping was MIA. So during our stay, we never got fresh towels and our beds was never made. Things could be worse though.

Pros: I have stayed at several Rosen Hotels recently and this was one of my favorite hotels out of the Rosen family chain in Orlando. Id love to stay at the Shingle creek Rosen but its always out of budget but this hotel is well maintained, modernly updated with beautiful renovated rooms. This hotel has many amenities including a hotel pool bar, hot tub, Starbucks coffe, and a nice modern club although wasnt our style or that busy on the weekend we stayed. Very well worth checking this hotel out and the staff is very friendly and accommodating! Will def stay again!!!

Pros: Bed are very comfortable, I rest well with no back pain the next morning I had one complaint about the toilets in the restroom being to low ,the next time I visit it was bigger toilets in the restrooms. The everything was beautiful, would have loved to have had a microwave oven in the room ,but it was still okay because the food in the hotel was great. You can tell mr. Rosen put a lot of love and care into his hotels motels the atmosphere love.
Cons: The valet Parkers was quick ,good and on point, but we paid out a lot of money each time we left we had to pay the valet Parkers plus pay for parking space ,very confused was we supposed to tip every time brought the car and took it back. That was a lot of tipping. That was the only problem

Pros: great location, beautiful hotel, when you have a problem with something in your room the maintenance staff gets there pretty quick.they have the most comfortable beds.the rooms are very nice and the view was awesome.
Cons: the a/c did not work in our room, it kind of smelled like old smelly carpet party because the room was hot. when they did come to fix the a/c they said we would have to pop open the front panel on the unit to change settings because the wall control did not work. we also set the do not disturb button and at about 830 am house keeping tapped like crazy with what i think was there keys and when i opened the door they said"oh your not up yet" and walked to the next room and started tapping. when i pulled in front of the hotel to check in while my wife sat in the car the valet jumped in and moved it twice in the 5 minutes i was inside, there was hardly anyone in the huge driveway at the entrance.

Pros: The lazy river was the most relaxing, after a day out. Buses to the Universal parks was handy. Nice looking hotel inside and outside. Security patrol on the parking lot at night time.
Cons: Had to buy the tubes for the lazy river, or bring your own. Staff just doing their job, but not make you feel welcome. There is no parking space available, when you check in or out, unless, you get lucky and find one, before someone else takes the short term spot. No business centre, been told at the desk, it's not a business hotel. All I wanted is to print out my boarding pass. Lucky, a lady on vacation, told me, the guys booking transportations, they willing to help, if I ask them nice, which they did. Not returning here any more, didn't make me happy and welcome. I can get that in any other cheaper hotel.

Pros: While not the most elegant place to stay it is a great value if you want to stay on Universal property. Early admission and bus transport to park made All the difference in our Harry Potter experience! And the cafeteria had very well prepared food (and large portions) for breakfast/dinner at a reasonable price. Important for us as my husband has to watch diet due to diabetes.

Pros: The Cabana Bay was everything you look for in a theme park hotel: super convenient, great pool, with on-site cafeteria and souvenir shops. The park shuttle bus came by every few minutes and the ride was quick.
Cons: The lazy river at the Continental/Americana pool requires you to buy inner tubes, which only got a couple of uses from us. it would be more efficient to allow guests to borrow them.

I also loved the views from the 9th floor I could see downtown Orlando, universal and surrounding areas.

Also so not waste your money at the bar. I drink very often and can guarantee you their alcohol is water downed. We w took shots and didn't feel anything. We bought a bottle at the store on premise and that was what the housekeeping threw away. The sushi bar was excellent fresh and yummy.

Pros: Location is good as it is near Prime 1 oulets, restaurants like IHOP, KFC, Subway are also close by. The female reception staff are frienly and build a rapport with you, Parking is free and plenty of spaces. Laundry is a bonus
Cons: Were do I start, the male reception staff are cold unfriendly and do not smile. The decor is out dated in the corridors and the room, feels like they brought in six million somkers and let them somke away, not good. The pillows are not pillows in the room they are cushions why!! The AC unit is to load, barely get through the night with the noise. The biggest issue we had was the shower, it felt like you may as well go outside and wait for rain to wash the shower gel/soap away. Reported this to reception, who said they will get it looked at, and nothing changed, make sure you add an extra 15-30 minutes to make sure you feel clean from soap. BW - you need to get this sorted, and fix the water pressure.

Once the parking lot is full you have to use the valet parking which costs more money. This hotel is better suited for someone that is in town for business, not a family on vacation. If you use the room service, you have to pay a $3 delivery fee and a 22% tip. The hall that our room was on had a terrible odor and there were stains on the sheets.

I asked if it would be ready within the next 10 mins all while other guests were able to check in and we some how had to be moved to a different room. My advice if someone requests an early check in get those rooms cleaned first, you are a major hotel in downtown universal there is no excuse for not having rooms available for those with reservations.

Pros: Located near Universal Studios and I-4 (most direct route to Disney World). The best feature - a Giordano’s Pizza within walking distance. The hotel has an upscale, perhaps even a little gaudy and artificially pretentious feel. The rooms and public areas are clean and well maintained.
Cons: Perhaps because of the convenient location, the roads around the hotel are very contested, making it hard to get in and out of the parking. Parking is the other issue - there is not much, and what there is, costs $12 a night. There were 2 private events at the hotel the night we checked in, and the parking was over-full with abandoned cars blocking parking empty spots, and other cars which could not get out - a perfect nightmare. Finally, the hotel seems to be the location the chain uses to lure people to Orlando for their time-share presentation - "Stay 3 nights in Orlando for free if you attend a 45 minute presentation." If you are into timeshares, great! We are not. If we ever visit Orlando again, we will choose a different hotel.

Pros: My husband and I had a great stay. This hotel was walking distance to the Orlando Improv, which made for a convenient stay. We were concerned because we like to stay in recognizable national chains where you know what you will get, but we were not disappointed. I would say it Ian compable to a Garden Inn or Hampton (w/o) the breakfast.

Every time I deal with them was either given an attitude, a look like don't want to deal with people, don't acknowledge you when you approach them or walk in the door, no good mornings. Texting when approaching the desk and waiting for her to acknowledge me. Very unprofessional. First impress and last are important, and their the first and last to see.

I never got the full amount of towels I requested for all the guests I had to call several times to get coffee refills and towels. They frequently forgot the rugs for the restrooms as well. And the staff treatment at the reception was terrible, cold and uninterested on the guests needs. I was best treated by the people who worked as custodians than the receptionists.

I sent an email and the response was "Guest complaint. Have a wonderful day!" This hotel clearly has no interest in the well-being or comfort of it's guests.

Pros: The price we were able to get through Kayak. How close it was to the lark we were going to.
Cons: We were in the building that is being remodeled. The elevator was slow and made noises. The was construction material all around. There was a garbage bag of garbage outside our rooms. When we came back from the park, parking was full and we had to park in front of a tattoo shop in a strip mall. We had two rooms with only one car and didn't even have one parking spot. One of our rooms had th elight by the door blow out. The same room also had no shower curtain in the bathroom. We bad to share our shower with our friends because we tried to call the front desk and our room phones didn't work. We we waited until morning to let the front desk know because it was 2:30 am when we got back to the room and we all nust wanted a quick shower and to go to bed. No one felt like walking to the other building to complain. When I mentioned these things at the dmfront desk I was told ok we will send a maintenance man to check things out. I was a little shocked that no apologies or any kind of discount was offered for all of the inconveniences. Breakfast was a lot to be desired. We ended up leaving the hotel and going to a resturant for a hot breakfast. I think our experience could have been a lot better if we would of been In the front building with the nicer and newer rooms. Not sure that I would recommend this hotel or stay here again myself.

Pros: It was close to Universal Studios.
Cons: The hair dryer blew up (and the whole room filled with smoke) while my GF was getting ready to go out, this delayed us a lot. No maintenance came until I went downstairs and made sure I did not came up without someone. (one of the guys did not have his radio, other was on break). There was only one elevator working in my tower, which was turned off for almost the entire wednesday for a contractor to work on. (I left on the wednesday morning, though). The maids and employees were using the same elevator as us, which would get full easily because of cleaning supplies and bags from guests. Also, styre foam would get inside the room through the door bottom from the construction. There was no butter for the waffles in the breakfast buffet. BUT, it was cheap, I had a great time and my wife too! Thanks!

While this resort offers timeshares, we were NEVER harassed or annoyed by any staff regarding this at any point. We were treated excellent for our entire stay and all staff did an extraordinary job making our stay awesome. Yes, the property is large but you can contact or wave down a complimentary resort shuttle any time you want. Our room was HUGE, and I was completely satisfied our entire trip. The place is very well cleaned and maintained. Staff is highly responsive to any request. Will definitely be staying again when traveling to Orlando. Highly recommended!

Pros: - Larger than expected - Lovely porch and homey living/kitchenette area - Friendly & helpful hotel staff - Nice pool/hot tub area
Cons: - Could never get a luggage dolly (Only one seemed to be available per building) - No bathtub - No seal on shower door (water leaked out onto floor when showering) - Neighboring room was quite loud until almost midnight. The above items are fairly minor. The main detractor in this hotel was the "Tour" staff. Upon check in, we were told that we had to leave a $20 deposit on our credit card to hold our place at a free breakfast. At the free breakfast, there would be a 60 minute presentation about the hotel then for sitting through it we were to receive a $75 discount. Well, the first day of our stay we showed up to the tour desk at our allotted time only to have to reschedule for the next day after waiting a half an hour. The next day. we showed up 15 minutes early and were kept waiting for over 45 minutes while tour staff rudely questioned us in a berating manner about our marital status, our employment (my boyfriend is self-employed) and our income level. They copied our identification then kept us waiting 20 more minutes until I explained that we had to leave as we were now running late for a convention. We were then told that the presentation was going to take another hour not including breakfast. We then decided to get our $20 deposit back as well as the copy of our ids. The salesman said he could quickly go through the presentation then asked for our company names, addresses, employment history and telephone numbers so they could call to verify employment as he had 20 state offices he had to report to. We then reiterated that we just wanted our deposit back. He gave us a voucher to receive our deposit but we had to insist several times that we wanted the copy of our ids back as well. He finally ripped the application in half and shoved us the portion with our ids on it at us. Needless to say, we never did have breakfast.

Pros: The hotel staff was very nice and very helpful. I had a nice view of the lake from the balcony attached to my room. Location and price were excellent!
Cons: The restaurant at the resort has AWFUL service. It is a smoke house bbq joint with a pizzeria attached to it (that's the first warning sign). On my first night there, I called the Front Desk of the resort and asked to be forwarded to the pizzeria (the pizzeria does not have a direct phone number). It was about 10PM, and I spoke to a nice man on the phone and I ordered my pizza. The paperwork in my hotel room (supplied by the resort) says that the restaurant (both BBQ and Pizza) is open until 11pm, but will only deliver up to 10PM. Therefore, I placed my order in anticipation of picking up my food. When I got to the pizzeria at 10:30, the manager tells me she never saw my order. She then proceeds to tell me the ovens are shut down so she can't make a pizza, and she won't turn them back on. Then, she offers me a pepperoni pie that a customer forgot 4 hours ago for full price. I was like "Whatever" because I was starving, and she goes to retrieve the pizza, only to come back with a basket of bread and says "we threw the pizza out so you can have the leftover bread from the BBQ side of the restaurant." So I left and searched for a McDonalds. On night two, I decided to give the BBQ joint a try. I arrive the BBQ side at around 7pm, and there is no host, nor anybody waiting for tables. A host magically appears from nowhere, and asked how many guests in my party. I reply "two". She says one moment, and disappears into the restaurant. She comes back and tells me there a 15 minute wait, but I can sit at the bar if I'd like. So I go to the bar, which faces the sit-down side of the restaurant. The place is EMPTY. I could literally count the number of guests at tables on one hand. After about 10 minutes, I go back to the host and ask for an update. She replies that it is going to be an ADDITIONAL 30 MINUTES TO THE WAIT. At that point I left; this restaurant doesn't know how to resturaunt. The main lobby of the resort pushes this restaurant hard on its guests. The food might be good (I have no idea), but twice I've tried to give them money to eat, and twice they turn down my requests. I did not like the Free Breakfast to lure me into trying to sell me a timeshare. If I wanted to buy a timeshare, I would have asked them about buying one. The grounds were kind of messy. I noticed garbage around the entire facility that never was picked up during my stay which was 3 days (beer cans, wrappers, solo cups, etc.). The room wasn't super clean. It wasn't messy, however minor little things went overlooked by the cleaning staff.
Okay
4.5
Pros: The facilities were expansive. Lots of pools and, we're told, lots of activities. Close to Universal, not far from Disney.
Cons: It's a damn timeshare scam. Ugh. Additionally, we were kept from getting to our room for quiet some time by a small family of raccoons who seemed to have claimed our stairwell for their own. We tried going around, but since our room was at the top of said stairwell, that proved fruitless. After a rain, a large (1"+ deep) pool of water collected at the base of that very stairwell and remained throughout the duration of our stay. Not exactly a place I'd want to become an "owner."
Mediocre
2.0
Cons: Other than a number of pools we didn't find the reason of their 4 star rating. The room was old, strong smell, dirty. We would have rather stay at a place without any amenities but in a clean room. Everyone on staff is always trying to hassle you something, scumy sales people everywhere pushing to sell time shares.
Okay
5.7
Pros: Me and my boyfriend suddenly decided to take a trip to Orlando. We had never been to Universal Studios, and Westgate lakes seemed like the best option. It was really cheap, there were good amenities (pools , mini golf, restaurant), and there is a shuttle to Disney and universal every morning. We booked a studio villa and it was nice! We requested a remodeled/ waterfront room (we highly recommend this, otherwise you could be in the middle of construction or facing a highway). We got a bottom floor villa and it was a standard room with a kitchenette, king size bed, flat screen tv, shower and a jetted tub. And best of all it had and amazing view!
Cons: First of all, this hotel looks like someone once invested a lot of money into it, but then ran out of money because it outgrew itself. There are so many units and the whole resort is massive. I think if they had more money it could be a 4/5 star resort. We did have some issues with ants, but that's expected on a bottom floor unit. THEY ARE UNDER CONSTRUCTION. I just want to make sure everyone knows this because even after reading reviews I somehow didn't know that. That's probably my bad but I just want everyone to be aware of this before booking while they are under construction. Obviously things are more hectic and awkward because of renovations and road blocks. It once took us 20 minutes to drive from our unit to the lobby. But other than that, this is perfect for people looking for the resort experience on a budget. We had a fantastic time just spending time on the resort. They even deliver pizza. That's aweomse.

Pros: Facility was nice, and clean but they had many issues going on. The first night we arrived the room and the whole Building had no hot water. After waiting all night issue was not resolved and there was no hot water in the morning. We requested to be moved to another Bldg which they did.
Cons: Agent in the morning informed us management had no knowledge of any issues. Including another Building with no electricity. Management and front desk should know and be informed of all issues so they don’t book rooms which have problems.

Pros: It’s big and beautiful. It reminds me of an apartment complex. The pools are heated and they have jacuzzis in and outside of your room. The staff is more friendly than the cast members at Disney. We really injoyed most of our stay.
Cons: As soon as we arrive to the resort my wife and I were hounded to come to a seminar to talk about joining the resorts special club and joining a travelers club. We only went for the prizes but they ended up using two of my vacation days for information we told them we didn’t want. So if you decide to go. Just tell them NO to the “tour around the property” and enjoy your vacation.

Cons: I didn't like the fact that the shuttle driver was so involved into his girlfriend I the front seat that he failed to pay attention to the passengers he transports.

Pros: Very spacious rooms, and equipped kitchens.
Cons: Original check in time was noon, we were pushed to 4PM then finally received a room at 11:55PM! The facility overbooked and ran out of rooms, rather than try to rebook us at a different hotel or give our money back they kept telling us they were doing there best to find us a room. Sadly we were not the only ones who were experiencing this issue, there were a number of families and couples sitting in the lobby waiting for a room to open up. Pretty big screw up. Manager offered absolutely no discount for having to wait an extra 12 hours for the room. The room we got had dirty bathrooms with hairs in the bathroom shower, stained towels, and dead flies in the jacuuzi. Obviously whoever cleaned this didn't do a good job. How this place is rated so well I don't know but I definitely will not be staying again!

Cons: There was a noise in the bedroom I was calling the front desk for one hour. We cannot sleep all night. Finally security was in the room and they confirm about the noise most probably from a fan but they were not able to do anything at that time (3:00 am) next day I went to the front desk and they said that they will have to verify with security the incident. At the end nothing happened.

Pros: The view over the lake was beautiful. The Deli has a little bit of everything.
Cons: Parking is awful. If you get there too late there is no place to park. The pools are too crowded. And don’t get me started on the 10:00 am checkout!!!! Really??? You feel less like a customer and more like cattle. No. I won’t go back.
Mediocre
2.8
Pros: The common areas are nice.
Cons: The service, the room quality, long wait time when their is an issue and not enough parking. We were not in their system so we were asked to come back. We returned an hour later and were assigned a room with no sofa bed when I made the request on the booking and at the front desk. After informing the front desk, they told me I was wrong and they will send someone. A staff arrived and confirmed we did not have a sofa bed. I called the front desk back and they said they will see what they can do. After waiting another 20 mins, they gave us another room. When we move to the other room, there was no parking and the AC in the room was not working too well. This has now been over an hour since we checked in. I requested to cancel my reservation and a full refund. They informed me that I had to contact Kayak for that request. I was on the phone with Kayak for over 20 mins and they had to contact the hotel to request authorization. After two hours, the reservation was canceled and now it was close to midnight and I had to find another place to stay. You get what you pay for.....
Okay
5.7
Pros: I enjoyed the spacious bathroom, shower, and kitchenette.
Cons: I found a great price through Kayak but they only care for you to purchase a timeshare. If you choose not to purchase, you may not stay at any Westgate for that same value price. On top of that, the free breakfast at the timeshare presentation was horrendous. Don't bother drinking the orange or apple juice or trying the sausage and pasteries. We were promised it would last no longer than one hour but we were there for three. Parking to check in was a hassle. Not near enough spaces. Who wants to spend time in the "resort" atmosphere there when there are so many theme parks nearby. We also went to a separate vacation value presentation and tried to tell Carlos (an upper level manager hoping to close the deal) unless the offer was open ended we were uninterested at the moment. But he cut us off and said, "let me finished." So we let him explain and again said this wasn't for us. He hurriedly and rudely signed us out and was visibly pissed we didn't take his offer. Please don't stay here and waste your hard earned money on a timeshare that you'll end up paying 1.5 times more in interest. The interest rate is 17.99%. You wouldn't buy a house with that interest rate. Why buy a timeshare for that amount that you'll visit a month or less each year?

5.6
Pros: It was very central for everything we wanted to see and do in Orlando with the I Ride Trolley and Lynx bus stops directly outside the hotel. The lady who provided maid service was very nice and helpful. The waiter in the restaurant was very friendly.
Cons: Did not like the fact that they deducted $50 from my mastercard cash passport card on checking in (which we did not spend any of ) and when we checked out we assumed the $50 dollars would be put back immediately but they informed us that this will take 7 - 10 days, this seems very unfair as the amount was deducted instantly and should be put back instantly and we were not informed of this either when we booked or on checking in that this would take so long to be repaid. Also they advertise a free shuttle to theme parks which was one of the reasons we went there, at first we could not get on to this shuttle then we did get on it but it very rarely arrived on time and was very disorganised. The decor of the room was poor and the tower block that we were in was very dated. The staff on the reception desk were not very helpful or friendly.
Mediocre
3.1
Pros: It was located close to the attractions I was visiting.
Cons: Didn't get the room I booked and they did nothing to even try to accommodate me, booked pool view...got dumpster view, room was in horrible and old condition but organized, broken outlets, waited in line for over 30 minutes to check-in, had to park on the complete opposite side of the entire hotel area because parking situation is horrendous, despite 3 elevators, only 1 or 2 seemed to be working and they took very long, easier and faster to take the stairs, which were filthy. Pictures are very deceiving! I will be writing to the hotel manager/company as well. Very disappointed, feel robbed of my hard earned money. At over $120-some odd dollars per night, I expected more.

The carpets were dirty, there were no towels soap or any kind of shampoo or conditioner (even though I bring mine it's nice to see when you pay for a room). The worst part about the room was the bathroom the tub was absolutely filthy. I wouldn't even put a random stray cat in there to wash!!! Just filthy. Toilet seat had hair on it!!! Overall horrible experience will never go there again Id rather fly to Afghanistan and sleep in a hotel there before I go back to this place!

Pros: The staff was nice in the lobby locked clean and nice also.
Cons: The room was not what I was expecting. The outside and inside looked more like a rundown motel than a ‘resort’ like their name suggests. There seem to be no insulation between the walls or outside because I could hear conversations clear as day. There was a dead bug and stains on the sheets, hair on a face towel, and water stains on the ceiling. Sad to say, I won’t be returning to Avanti and can’t recommend it.

Pros: The price was the only good part but you get what you paid for. The website is deceiving because it shows the renovated tower and the rooms there.
Cons: Carpet was dirty. Hallways had trash and filth. Room service only left 1 towel and no soap or shampoo after 1st night. Hotel is located close to resorts but is in the ghetto. Police had someone pulled over in the parking lot. Pool area was not cleaned with trash, plastic bags, teeth flossers, you name it--- it was there. Pay more money and stay somewhere else

Pros: The rooms were clean and prepared and the shower/bath had nice water pressure and hot water right away. Plus the AC worked well. They also had three different density pillows, which is a great plus as most places have only one size and often it's too big for me.
Cons: The building wasn't brand new so some things were as expected, such as the door in the bathroom would stick on the tile so you needed to push it through harder. NO problem.

Pros: This hotel is in a great location. Many stores and restaurants are all within walking distance, including a Starbucks! Right off of international drive so many theme parks and the outlet mall are all right down the road. The rooms were nice but I wish they had carpet floors because I don't think the floors are swept because they're wells sand and dirt everywhere. The beds were full size, when most hotels are usually queen. The first night we were there they didn't turn the lights on outside for our building so we almost fell down the stairs walking in the dark because there isn't an elevator. The 2nd day the battery in our doors key slot died so we couldn't get in our room. The second night the a/c stopped cooling the room. We had drinks at their Gator bar which was nice and relaxing but when we left we had multiple charges from them that we didn't authorize (they fell off a few days later) but that was odd. I really enjoyed relaxing by the pool, although the bathrooms were dirty and had no toilet paper. Over all its a nice hotel but it felt like there were a lot of things that went wrong within our short stay here. The staff was friendly and the location was nice. I might consider staying here in the future again.
Cons: See above statement!

Cons: My room was musty smelling , like a closed up basement , triggered my allergies, I'm guessing mold, they were sold out that night so I had to stay in the room for the night , the next day I was able to get another room but not until after 2 pm , I told them I had no problem checking out and going somewhere else. You would think that if a customer had a problem with a room they would do everything they could to accommodate them. Plus really after you pay for the room they charge a 19.95 resort fee....Ive been to lots of resorts , that was not one of them. I debating writing the president of the company and asking for a refund...will not stay there again

Great location at Sand Lake Rd and International Dr - close to the FL Turnpike and 1-4 intersection, shopping, movies, Universal Studios and low cost transportation. Staff is knowledgeable, helpful and also competent! Buses and trolleys make transportation inexpensive. Rooms lovely with complimentary bottled water. Only hotel I've ever stayed in where pillows make siting up in bed comfortable. Bought thru Kayak.
Cons: Signage at the property needs to be improved - locating the lobby-check in area as well as the meeting rooms and even the sleeping room buildings can be challenging. Better sound proofing would be helpful if neighbors, hallways, dogs are noisy. No problem encountered just noticed.

Pros: I like how big the hot tub was.
Cons: I booked on kayak when we go there we checked in and when to our room they gave us two doubles instead of a king like we booked. I called down to have them fix it but they didn't. My boyfriend went down to try to get a refund and we were going to go stay somewhere else. But they said they could not give a refund we would have to go through kayak. So I called them no body answered so I called to hotel again and asked to speak with a manager and ended up putting me on the phone with the same person we have been dealing with and he just said there is nothing they can do they don't have a room for us and they can't give us out money back. So we hung up. 2 minutes later I got a call from someone that was a lot higher up then Andrew. She said I hear that you are going to leave the hotel and I don't want that. She said I do have a king room available if you are willing to stay. So basically they wasted two hours of our vacation telling us they couldn't put us in the room we booked and in the end they put us in the correct room. The new room was nice and spacious the only two things wrong was that there was mold around the toilet and tub. Also the outlets next to the bed did not work other than that the rest of our stay was good.

Also we called the front desk ( because we had no cellphone service ) to find out when Univerisal closed and she told us 10 so we taxied up there around 7:30 to hit the rides at night but Univerisal was closed so we spent $25 on a taxi for no reason !!!

Cons: Came back late from a full day of walking around Disney and the parking lot was completely full. Had to park on the other side of the property and trek all the way back to my room. I think they had some event going on, but a lot of cars had no parking passes. Should have reserved spots for guests that are actually paying to stay at the hotel. Also because the hotel sits on International Drive the traffic from the street can get a little loud. It wasnt too bad but definitely something to consider if you are a light sleeper.

Cons: Did not like the "resort Fee". Who charges for parking anyway. (where are you supposed to put your car. Was told I had to pay for in room internet access, after paying an amenities fee.

Pros: The peaceful and relaxing atmosphere of the property withflowing fountains and trees helped reduce the noise of trafiic on interstate and busy tourist roads and the sound of other guests at the pool area. The hotel was clean. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Beds were comfortable. I definitely found the facility was worth the money spent. Will definitely stay here again.
Cons: Due to recent construction and remodeling, the office and entrance to hotel property did not coincide with the address of 8001 International Drive. The actual entrance was located on a side road. There were no signs. Then once on the property there were no signs to distinguish the hotel office from the convention center area. And the only other complaint was lack of parking available since the construction was not complete yet.
This family-friendly Orlando hotel is located in the entertainment district, within a 15-minute walk of Pirate's Dinner Adventure and Ripley's Believe It or Not. The Wheel at ICON Park™ and Universal’s Volcano Bay are also within 1 mile (2 km).

Pros: The water park was amazing! I went with two children aged 4 &6 and they had an amazing time! This was the only redeeming quality for the hotel
Cons: This hotel is more in line with a 2 star motel. The building in the picture is misleading as most rooms have exterior corridors which would be fine had the neighborhood been better. There were signs out front advertising “420 delivery.” For those unaware that is drug sales. I was in a black hole for cell phone signal. I was told the internet was down in the entire area only to discover that was a lie and only my building was affected. The air conditioner was a wall unit that sounded as if it was going to take off like an airplane and barely kept the room cool. Mold on the ceiling in the bathroom. Drain in tub not working. No hot water in the shower. No blackout drapes... no curtains at all for that matter. The staff did nothing to resolve any of my issues. I was told to “deal with it.” The only reason I stayed instead of getting another room is the kids fell fast asleep within minutes of arriving at 10pm and we planned to be at the water park the next morning.

Pros: Very nice people at check in . Helped with everything. Being disabled sometimes is a challenge But this hotel can accommodate.
Cons: At checkout they came by our rooms and told us we needed to leave and when we booked our reservations we confirmed a late checkout for one room. It was ok because we understood the hotel was at 100 percent .just wished we new so we didn't have to pack so quickly.

Pros: We stayed for 5 days and the room was nice. It was clean and roomy. tye cost was WONDERFUL. The water park and life Garuda were fantastic!!! We will definitely stay there again.

Pros: The aquatic park but only works 6 hours and They close one area of water and open another, intermittently,
Cons: Uncomfortable, the items in the room were dirty, the furniture and chest of drawers old and in poor condition, rust came out of the shower for the disabled. In my reservation, the parking was included and they charged cost for that 2 times. You should remove the resort title because it is not even a fifth of that. Pools open after check out (at 11 am).

Rude or hostile, and I felt like they were short-staff all the time. I waited in line for 25 minutes trying to get 3 towels gor my room. "ON TOP, THEY HAVE HIDDEN FEES THEY ONLY TELL YOU WHEN YOU GET THERE" You are better off paying the extra elsewhere. Good luck to you. Thats the first and last time for me!!!. I told the staff I was going to report them with Corp, they laughed in my face!

Pros: Avanti was a good value for the price. It has the basics for a hotel -- clean room, good sized room, large pool and jacuzzi. The staff (when you can find them) are quick to provide the requested services.
Cons: Avanti skimps on services that make a hotel into a resort. There is no attendant in the pool area and the soiled towels and empty cups are left among the scattered chaise lounges. This disarray turns the entire pool area into an eyesore. The 4 pool gates are annoying loud and I suggest asking for a room that does not overlook the pool or is away from the gates.

Pros: It was in a great location and and the staff were very friendly. The room was nice and the beds were very comfortable! Their gueen size beds were full queen size compared to a lot of 4 star hotels that are smaller and less comfortable. We had everything that we needed for this short stay. It was a plea sent visit for our needs on this one night stay.
Cons: The only thing I didn't like was that the pool bar and snack room was highly over priced.
Good
6.0
Pros: Place was OK.
Cons: We were surprised at check-in with a $10 resort fee that was not included with our Kayak booking. The fee covers things that should be included with the room rate (like use of the pool, exercise room, and internet), and which we didn't even use because we were only there overnight. Aside from that, rooms were noisy because hotel is right next to the highway. It is a 5-story walk-up with no elevator, so don't bring too much luggage. Rooms and facilities are dingier than they appear online. The place is not horrible, but there are better places to stay in the area in the same price range (especially after adding the resort fee).

Pros: I liked the location. Decent hotel on International Dr. withing walking distance to a lot of restaurants. Front desk people were very friendly.
Cons: 1. The cleanliness. This hotel was remodeled last year and the bathrooms tiles have a little bit of mold already. Also the floors had dust, not on my room, but my friend was complaining about it. 2. A lady from the staff knocking on all doors on check out day at 9:00 am. When I opened and said good morning all she said was "Check out!" not sure if she was asking me if I was checking out, or if she was telling me to check out. Did not like her tone. Found her very rude.

Pros: Staff response time was extremely good. Poolside grill...didn't eat anything but the smells were wonderful. Option of Starbuck's in lobby area.
Cons: Could hear every other guest if loud at all (which is the case with any hotel/motel/resort). Floors were very dirty/stained...walked in sock feet for only a few minutes and socks were black.
Located in Southwest Orlando, this hotel is within 1 mile (2 km) of Pirate's Dinner Adventure, Universal Studios Florida and Universal’s Volcano Bay. Fun Spot USA and Ripley's Believe It or Not are also within 1 mile (2 km).

Pros: The Staff weren't terribly rude when I made it clear I was not happy
Cons: This was listed as a 3 star hotel. It clearly is not. I actually left and went to a Ramada that cost just about as much, and was way better. The place is really run down. They try to mask water damage or smoke smell with shampoo that makes the whole place smell really strongly, in a very bad way. I pulled back the covers on the bed and there was dirt on the sheets - not stains, actual pieces of dirt on the bed. Grout was filthy, things run down, it was just a really trashy place. The beds were terribly worn and uncomfortable.

Pros: Easy location, with I-Ride stops right in front of the hotel (Red line stop #9). Friendly staff, clean rooms, We were there for convention center show, and it's about a 15 minute I-Ride away (but 8pm to 10pm only). Get cheap unlimited I-Ride passes for the number of days you'll be there, or if over 65, the senior rate is only 25 cents per ride. Lots of restaurants up and down I-Drive. We've stayed there 3 times now at a third of the price closer to the convention center. Ponderosa breakfast buffet nearby was good. Walgreens next door for quick snacks.
Cons: In room air conditioning is loud, dehumidifier needed and also a bit noisy. Beds no the most comfortable. While the hotel is older, I thought it was pretty well maintained.

Towels had ratted edges, super thin and looked like bleach was never an option. More like hand towels for bath towels. Outlets would not hold my charger plugins...too heavy and it just fell out. I won't be back. If you are looking for just a clean, comfortable bed for a good nights sleep then don't stay here. I even took pictures but this review site does not have a place to upload.
