Clean and comfortable
It was clean, comfortable and convenient. Nice touch to have flavored water set up in the lobby with a sweets station. The lobby was friendly and inviting.

Highly recommended this place. Great location, nice view, great service.
Beautiful location, very friendly stuff, very pets friendly
Don’t order a breakfast. It’s cost about $30/room when book on Booking.com but you’ll get a coupon for 20$ in a snack bar. Not worth of it, really. Parking is not included and costs $28 valet.

Great stay at city center!
We loved the hotel! Unfortunately we were there only for one night as we were just passing through Orlando, but we will definitely choose the brand again when traveling. The rooms were big and cozy. The reception and valet staff were polite and welcoming! We felt great 😊

The staff was so accommodating. They gave us advice of where to go eat and provided umbrellas because we were not prepared. They were a blessing.
We wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the extras.

Beautiful location, so much potential
Decor was amazing and well done, loved the candy bar and water, pool table and patio. Room was really pretty, and loved the upgrade we got. The lounge in the front room was amazing.
It didn't feel safe, doors didn't all lock from the outside at night. We had a homeless person following us at night, but there wasn't like a locked gate to the patio. We also had a drunk person in the hallways at night yelling and hitting the walls, not sure if they were even staying there as literally anyone can come up the elevators. It's not the safest location at night due to the amount of foot traffic there, I would have expected a higher amount of security. The place is lit up with pride colors, and in downtown Orlando with no security at all, meanwhile all the clubs down the road are using metal detectors to let people in. The hotels I have stayed at for Marriott usually lock all but the front door at night so there is only one entry point. Let's just say I didn't sleep too well. Lastly I would have liked the option to stream my shows with either a smart tv or the option to add a streaming device. Kinda sucked that only cable was available and there were no on demand options at all.

Great spot for an event at Amway
Walking distance to a lot of great places in downtown Orlando, especially the Amway Center. Saved us a lot of headache with transportation
It would not have been affordable for us without the discount.

Employees were friendly and helpful for the most part.
Nice atmosphere and convenient location
The bed was very uncomfortable and the security in front of the property could be a little better.

I wanted to take the bed to my house! So comfortable and warm... Location was great for me, cause I had to work to Citrus Center, and I went by a simple walk. I just loved the room, very quiet.
