The hotel had some great features like comfortable and spacious rooms but lacked some in-room amenities like a fridge for drinks and snacks. The service was friendly but required multiple requests for basic items. The location was convenient for getting around but suffered from traffic noise. The dining was reasonably priced with a good variety, although extra charges for parking were unexpected.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positive and negative aspects. The room was clean, spacious, and had thoughtful amenities like a coffee bar, fridge, and microwave overlooking a scenic lake, but I was disappointed that I wasn't allowed to sit at the bar, and I felt that the room was a bit out-dated for the price they charge per night.

The hotel's location was perfect for me as it was close to the venue I was attending. Additionally, being a little over a mile from Lake Eola, where there are various dining options and a farmer's market, made it very convenient.

The dining options were somewhat basic and not worth the additional cost. However, the assortment of fresh berries was a pleasant surprise.

The facilities were decent, but I wish they were more modern and updated for the price point. However, the presence of certain amenities like room service would have enhanced the overall experience.

I loved staying at this hotel in downtown! The rooms had 2 A/C heating wall units, which was unique but gave off a cozy vibe. The service, especially from Craig, the shuttle driver, and Marlene, the waitress at Bite, was exceptional. The location was ideal for exploring the downtown area, and the dining experience left a bit to be desired. Overall, a mixed but mostly positive experience.
